Sep 25, 2007 Slight swirl in the pour of this 12 oz bottle. Some gunk on the bottom afterwards. Yeasty aroma with a slight metallic hint. Very bitter medicine that hangs for quite a while. Intense citrus rind bang that fades rapidly only to leave a building bitter lingering soap finish.

Sep 14, 2007 Smells very well balanced between malty sweetness and citrusy hops. Pours a nice deep orangish copper color. Taste is balanced hops and malts. A little more hops wouldnt hurt though.

Sep 12, 2007 Quite a brownish heavy color for a "pale" ale - surprisingly close in color to the brown ale. Hops evident right in the smell, quite heavy for the style. But nicely balance with a reasonably rich malty without being too heavy. Dry finish. Very nice overall effect but more of a bitter than a "pale ale".

Sep 1, 2007 Updated: Jan 9, 2009355 ml, bbe Nov 07. Slight haze in this new penny colored beer with a medium head that really lasts well, leaving some sticky lace. Nose is spicy dried fruit (almost berry-like), toasted nut and caramel. Flavor pits some dry-bitterish, fruity and earthy-spiced hops and yeast against an underlying malt sweetness that has some chocolate, nut, coffee, and brown sugar tones. Medium-bodied and smoothish; drying and tingly on the tongue. Excellent EPA.
