Oct 29, 2008 Pours a nice dark gold color with a small white head. Aroma of caramel malt, bread, hops. Flavor is caramel malt and a little hop bitterness along with floral notes. Middle of the road, but not bad by any means.

Oct 21, 2008 Very light. The pour was a coppery color. Has a bready..almost buttery taste to it. Not bad.

Oct 7, 2008 Bottle. Pours a medium gold with 2 finger fluffy white head and clumpy spotty lacing. Nose is malt, bread and a touch of citrus hops. Taste pretty much follows suit with the aroma. There’s a bit more citrus hop in the finish than the nose lets on. Medium mouth feel. Not terrible.

Aug 9, 2008 Bottle. Small, fizzy, off-white head atop a clear amber body. Heavy malt aroma of caramel and grain.Lightly to moderately hopped with notes of flowers and herbs. A hint of apple and wood. The flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic and lightly bitter. The finish was lightly to moderately bitter and lasting. Throughout the bottle, there was a slight tartness and hint of vinegar.

Aug 5, 2008 Clear golden coloured body with an orange tint and a thinnish off-white head with some rather larger bubbles rising from the bottom and sides. Aroma of fresh hops, grapefruits, pine, alcohol and strong metal. Medium-bodied; Assertive hoppiness with some astringent qualities following soon behind with a cardboardie malt and chunky nuttiness at the end. Aftertaste shows more malt than hops, but the grapefruit and citrus still ride high. Overall, a fairly strong and overly powering pale, more of an APA than an EPA to me...worth a shot if you like either of the styles, but there are far superior beers in the area that should be sampled first. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Oliver’s Beverage in Albany, New York on 12-July-2008, sampled about a month later on 04-August-2008.
