| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 22, 2009 Pours a lovely golden brown. A milder bitter, but the quality of the bitter is smooth, a little bit, and just a great session beer with light floral notes. hayduke (1683), Eureka, California, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 19, 2009 From a 22 oz bottle. I liked the nice bright label on this one. If poured a rich amber color with just a little haze, a nice white head, and good lacing. Good start. The nose is light malts and there is only the slightest hint of hops in the aroma, and that is lightly floral. The mouthfeel is fairly rich and full bodied. The flavor is lightly bitter and so is the finish. A decent beer. glkaiser (1173), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 22, 2009 22oz bottle. Clear amber medium head. Very light malt presence and overly bitter, even at just 30 IBUs. Minimal hop flavor. All that said, it doesn’t taste bad at all, and I could see having one of these for a work lunch at 4.4% ABV. spikester (602), Salem, Oregon, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jan 22, 2009 From a recent bottling, a 22 ounce bottle. Pours slightly hazed copper amber with one finger head. Good amount of lacings with agressive pour. Aroma is malty.
Taste is slightly sweet dark malts with an oncoming wash of earthy bitter dry hops. Mild carbonation and a dry bitter finish.
Hop flavors unusual for a NW beer. Interesting. Good session beer at 4.4% abv (label data). anders37 (4792), Malmö, Sweden
