12 oz bottle. Pours a copper/gold color with a 1/4" off white head and a few spots of foamy lace. Nose is hops and malt. Flavor is a nice balance is hoppy bitterness with the sweetness of the malts. Although the hops do win out in the end. Some mild hints of nuttiness. Lingering bitter finish.

12oz bottle. Shiney bright copper color, rocky tan head. Aroma is very bready, lots of buttery toffee, some citrus, just short of a malty barleywine’s aroma. Light bodied, nice malt. Hint of chocolate malt in the finish. Nice bitterness. Rich, perfect balanced amber ale.

Bottle, gracefully aged since January, 2008. Aroma of very bready malt, toffee citrus notes, maybe a hint of pine. Flavor continues with the rich toffee and bready malt and does in fact still retain a fair amount of juicy hop bitterness even at this late date. Medium-bitter, medium-sweet finish. Nice stuff, would probably love it fresh...So now I had it fresh on tap at ACBF, and it tasted much the same...no longer feeling compelled to give it credit for some age, I’ll say that it’s quite sweet and heavy and not letting the hops poke through much at all. Some medium-dark fruits. Odd amber.
