wilkie (1189), Raleigh, North Carolina, USA Jun 22, 2006 Bottle. Pours golden with medium white head. Aroma is sweet, slightly hoppy. Flavor is overly sweet, slightly malty, bit thin in finish. Hmmm, tastes like all of the other shipyard beers I’ve had. Holdwine (905), Beertimore, Maryland, USA Jun 13, 2006 Me like. Not the overpowering hopfest that runs around the country (not that there is anything wrong with that), but a restrained hoppiness that one would expect from an english pale. Well done. Quevillon (1518), Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada May 31, 2006 Bu au Mondial de la Bière 06. Dorée foncée, pas de collet. Arome d’houblon plaisant. Goût de malte simple mais bon. Dorwart (1807), Robbinsville, New Jersey, USA May 14, 2006 Good sized head. Bright white in color. Lingers for a while with light carbonation. Nice aroma vanilla, candy, little hops and some light biscuit malts. Color is a bright dark orange. Crisp and slightly dry flavor with more vanilla and soft malts up front then the hops take over. Nice bitterness appears and lasts through the finish. Little more biscuits and a touch of sweetness for balance. Nice lingering bitterness at the finish and again a little dry. This is a very good and moderately hopped pale ale. chicagobears (336), Elk Grove Village, Illinois, USA May 6, 2006 A deep bronze with a dissipating head. Moderate carbonation. The aroma reminds me of maple leafs and honey. Crisp bitterness follows a slightly sticky honey and carmael. Slightly roasted malt. A fine blend of the English meets the coast of Maine. da845 (139), new york, New York, USA Apr 30, 2006 Has a very crisp aroma that is very springy and floralish. Is a light amber, very clear and sparkly appearance. Has a light white head, looks very appealing in glass. Very good flavor that is not too bitter or sweet. A perfect summer beer. Beerdedone (1873), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 24, 2006 Updated: Apr 26, 2006Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours copper with a white head. Aroma hops and caramel malt. Flavor was bitter, sweet, and caramel. Not bad picked up while in Vermont visiting micro breweries. ross (1709), weddington, South Carolina, USA Apr 1, 2006 Pours out yellow in color with a sticky white head on it. Hoppy, even slightly soapy smell to it. Very drinkable, almost able to gulp it. Not bad in all, something to drink during the summer perhaps.
