JoeMcPhee (3807), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Jul 6, 2006 Tap at SPH. Pale amber colour, thin white head. Earthy hop aroma, maybe goldings or fuggles. Lean malts, a bit grainy. Low esters. As the beer warms the bitterness really kicks up. Well-hopped (tastes like 60 IBUs) but not good hops. Low aroma, kind of harsh and astringent. Not for me at all. Eyedrinkale (3109), Beer Town, New York, USA Oct 28, 2004 Tap @ Blind Tiger. Clear, almost copper color with medium sized head and some lacing. Aroma of light malt and floral hops. Taste is light with some bitterness and a mellow caramel. Really quite good. egajdzis (3013), Terrapin, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 7, 2006 Poured a copper color with a medium sized, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of pine, citrus fruits, grassy hops, toffee, and some light lemongrass. Taste of toffee, was somewhat earthy, with nuts, citrus, and light pine, with a dry finish. austinpowers (2828), New York, New York, USA May 13, 2003 This beer has plenty of bitterness and has a taste not unlike Anchor Steam Beer, not surprisingly. Rather crisp. Dickinsonbeer (2550), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA Jun 3, 2007 Tap at blind tiger. Pours a ligth amber with a foamy sticky off white head. Aroma of lightly toasted malts, some caramel, ligth toffee, and nice lightly floral and metallicy citrus hops. Good crisp malt flavor- light cookie, caramel, and toast with a good clean bitter finish. Similar to Anchor, but more body, and flavor.
