Jul 17, 2007 12 oz. bottle. Pours dark amber/brown with little off white head. Head is gone almost immediately. Medium sweet smell, with a hint of hops. Sweet caramel taste with i twinge of hops on the back end. Medium bodied with mild bitter after taste. Even with the medium weight, very drinkable and wish I had more on hand.

Jul 16, 2007 (Bottle, Akkurat, Stockholm) Reddish brown colour with brief off-white head. Fruity nose with notes of wild berries, caramel and fresh hops, hints of pine needles as well. Fruity taste with dryish malty notes, wild berries, caramel and hops. Rather dry, medium body. Hops are more evident in the aroma, replaced by malt and caramel in the taste, making it quite balanced. Hardly exciting, but definitely well made and tasty.

Jul 15, 2007 Dry hopped version. I really liked this ale. Caramel amber taste that is overwhelmed by a powerful complex hop flavor. Bitter finish.

Jul 11, 2007 Dry Hopped version. Pours to a glowing brassy orange body with a lasting bubbly light khaki head. The aroma is grassy hops and simple pale malts. The flavor is pretty simple with weak light grassy hops and specialty malts. Non-offensive, simply not very impressive. Average bitter palate.

Jul 10, 2007 Pours a highly carbonated dark red with a cream white head. Aroma of dry citric hops. Flavor has toasted malt, strong dry hop finish, rye bread, and a mild caramel back drop. The dryness lingers. The malt character shines more as the ale warms.

Jul 10, 2007 Bottle shared by Blake. Cloudy brown-amber body, small tan head. Smells like unfermented wort - sweet caramel and juicy hops. The flavor sort of falls flat in the middle - no underlying sweetness and bitter, resinous hops on the edge. Some dry toasty malts but that’s all there is.
