Jul 6, 2007 Pours a light, murky brown like a root beer float. The head is spare, creamy and off-white, diminishing quite quickly. The nose is nice departure from the typical amber. While the typical caramel notes come forward, in the aroma, there is a faint cocoa and a more pronounced spicy/fruity hop presence in the nose. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied and slick with a dry, bitter finish. Solid, sweet caramel malts front a nice roasted dry finish. The aftertaste lingers a bit too dry for my tastes and kept this from being 3.5 or higher. The flavor is clearly superior to most of the ambers that I’ve sampled, but overall, the finish keeps this from being a beer that I’ll want to buy again. Thanks for sharing this one with me, Don.

Jul 3, 2007 Clear, reddish color with a small, off white head. Sweet, roasted malt aroma with fruity hops and a bit of pine. Full piney and fruity flavor with a rich malt background and a nice pine finish. Full bodied and smooth, very nice.

Jul 2, 2007 Updated: Sep 15, 2009Bottle at Københavnske Øldage. Clear, copper body with a beige head. Quite malty nose with a good dash of beef-stock, along with fruityness and piney hops. Some dried fruit in the flavor, with beef-stock and other umami notes. Full, a bit sweet mouthfeel. Malty and piney finish. A quite nice beer, but a bit too malty I think. 070512

Jun 29, 2007 Hoppy like a strong pilsner more than an IPA. Pleasant enough but not something I would buy again at the price I paid for it.

Jun 29, 2007 Bottle. Pours translucent ruby color with thick khaki head. Big malt nose - caramel, tobacco- with background of spicey floral hops. Flavor is citrus hops; taste of sour grapefruit, pine resin. IMO hops are balanced very well with lightly toasted amd caramel- flavored malt.
