Jul 1, 2008 12 oz bottle purchased at Oak Tree. This one poured with waaaay to much head. Virtually it was a glass of head so I thought it might have been infected but the aroma and flavor seemed to be okay. Aroma had a slight bit of mustiness, the malt profile seemed to be wheaty although I’m pretty sure this isn’t brewed with wheat. Flavor is dominated by lots of malts with some spicey pepper as well. For some reason I was expecting something smooth and easy drinking and this was much fuller and more complex then I was anticipating.

Jun 29, 2008 The color is somewhat clear with a golden tint. There is a white sudsy head that leaves some streaks along the sides of the glass. The nose has some bitter hops mixed with pale malt. As you take a sip the beer is nice and crisp with the perfect balance of bitterness and bready malt. Overall the beer is nice and crisp and can be pared well with most foods.

Jun 29, 2008 pours a pale amber/orange tea color with a minimal head. smells sweet and grainy with orange and mild grassy hops. very tame flavor... orange/citrusy hops, grass, grain and a moderately dry finish. light to medium bodied. smooth texture. kinda meh. leaves me wanting something more.

Jun 21, 2008 Presentation: Poured from a 12oz brown bottle into a pint glass. It pours a beautiful golden amber color with a thin head that fades fast leaving just a few bubbles around the sides of the glass. The aroma get a kick of citrus, floral and piney hops with undertones of sweet bready malts. Its flavor starts with sweet bready malts with a light toasted note. It soon builds up to a burst of fruity and piney hops with a decent bitterness that fades off into the finish. The palate is smooth and slightly oily with average carbonation and a medium body. Overall it has a strong hop presence with an easy to drink, refreshing palate. Its good but I wouldn’t call it extraordinary.

Jun 20, 2008 Bottle thanks to beerbill. Pours somewhere between crystal clear and hazy, a yellowish to straw colour, with little to no head. Aroma is a little bit of grassy hops, not much else, except maybe a faint spiciness. Flavour is pretty much the same lots of hop bitterness, with a bit of malt in the middle and more hops on the finish. Carbonation seems a bit low, and the brew is a bit watery. Pretty tasty though.

Jun 15, 2008 Chaucers in London, served nice and cold in a trappist glass, poured gold with no head in the rinsed glass. In comparison to domestic Aaes, this is extraordinary, but for any craft beer comparison, it’s daring to call it extraordinary. It was alright, aroma was pretty week - citrus, a bit of malt. Taste was thin, a bit of grassy hops, finished even. Not bad, but the percentile rating is genuinely how I feel about this brew.
