Nose is citrus hops and malt. Taste is tart citrus, malt and alcohol. Medium mouth feel. Not sure it matches the style, but I liked it due to the hops profile. riversideAK (2792), Shoreline, Washington, USA

Golden pour with a nice head and sticky lacing. Moderately sweet and malty - like cookie dough with some floral and citrus hops in the finish too. Creamy body, nice hoppy finish.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Nov 3, 2008 Crystal clear bright medium golden amber. Thin, loose white head. Sharp boozy nose, lots of earth and dry leaves there as well. Crisp, light, slightly fizzy body. Twang, diacetyl, earth, and dry leaves on the mid-palate, along with some salt. Not much happening here, none of it much good.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Oct 27, 2008 tap @ sierra. Not thrilled with this offering. Poured light golden and thought I was getting the wrong beer. Soft carmel hops and a bigger hop backbone than I was expecting. Maybe I was looking for more flavor It’s ok. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA

Pours a bright semi cloudy golden colour with a hint of orange near the bottom. Head is large and flowing, creamy and sort of resinous. Aroma is bready, soft hops, caramel malts and toast. Taste is full and slightly hoppy. Big bright fruits ecspecially pear and peach. Overall nice beer, packs a punch thast for sure.
