Dec 3, 2009 Draught: Poured a light amber color with a thin off white head. Aroma was a mix of toffee, caramel, and hops. Taste was a nice smooth mix of caramel and hops. A nice beer, however the cost at the JFK airport is ridiculous...$10.33!

Dec 1, 2009 Bottle. Pours a copper color with a thin, foamy beige head. Taste is of malt, caramel and some hops. Rather bitter. Similar aroma. Decent mouthful. Reminds me a non-alcoholic. Drinkable, refreshing and slightly enjoyable, but not that great.

Nov 22, 2009 Bottle [12oz]. Pours a clear orange-amber with an average size frothy off-white head. Aroma is lightly sweet, floral and toasty with caramel malt, some grain and fruit. Flavour of caramel malt, grain and fruit along with a
hint of metal, light hops and a light bitter finish. Medium bodied. A simple yet solid Ale, easy to drink and I’d gladly have it again.

Nov 21, 2009 I had been drinking this for a long, long time but realized I had not had drank it in a few years. It proves the old addage that you can’t go home again - the memories are better than the experience. From a 12 oz bottle. Pours a light amber/copper color. Head didappated rather quickly. No real aroma to speak of. Taste was very malty with almost no hope bite. This used to be my favorite beer and I do like Sam Adams but I have been drinking more hoppy beers lately and this just doesn’t cut it anymore.

Nov 21, 2009 Bottle ( 12oz ). Clear bright bubbly light copper-gold with a large lasting fluffy off-white head. Simple aroma of sweet grain and light floral bitterness. The taste is metallic, generic grain, a bit of alcohol. Average body and carbonation, some bitterness emerges in the linger, a bit syrupy. Not bad.

Nov 19, 2009 12. oz bottle from the Summer Sampler pack lured out of my girlfriend’s mothers basement. Pours a darker amber, a bit of haze, decent offwhite head that dies to a small layer, bit of lacing. Aromas are maltier, caramel sweetness and light toastiness team with some floral hops, light spiciness. Initial mirrors this, caramel malts, fruity undertones, with grassy and floral hops, balanced fairly well. A touch of spice that gets in the way for me, but overall pretty drinkable.

Nov 17, 2009 Poured a slightly hazy pale copper color with a short white head and minimal lacing. The aroma was of malts and some old hops. The flavor was malt, old hops and slightly oxidized or metallic. Thin mouthfeel, aggressive carbonation. Kind of meh.
