Mar 3, 2009 Found this one bottled in Stevens Point, Wisconsin. Cloudy, light reddish-brown pour with a thick, off-white foamy head, a crisp, citrusy hoppy head, and nice pronounced and clean hoppy presence. Very nice example of the style.

Feb 28, 2009 Copper color with a fluffy head and blanketing lacing. Moderately bitter and fairly drinkable. Mixed citrus aromas with a touch of flowers. Supporting flavors of bread, citrus, evergreen, honey, and caramel. Seemed a little off, but was still OK.

Feb 21, 2009 Copperish brown in color. Nice thin head sitting on top. Not bad looking. Aromatic bread and butter smell. This beer doesn’t smell half bad. It is fairly pungent for a beer. Butter and bread taste as well. Decent texture with the palate. Slight hop taste with this one. Not a bad beer. I am not usually a fan of the English pale ales, but I like the use of the bread and butter flavor. I also enjoy the use of hops, I was very surprised by this.

Feb 18, 2009 Amber with small white head. Nothing special in the taste but quite drinkable. A little to much citrus for my taste. Not enough malt. The hops save the day though.

Feb 16, 2009 The first sip worried me, but after trying it further i found a lot of good points. You can read the other reviews for the finer tasting notes but these comments will help you understand why you should try this beer if the opportunity arises. I love the hoopy pales and IPAs and this one is just that, the citrus comes out after a few tastes and it is very complex. The color is darker than I was expecting and the nose really pops out after the taste, a very nice effect. To wrap it up, this brew starts out a little week but by the end, we were good friends. Drink up snobby beer lovers!
