May 22, 2007 On tap in Princeton. It was a clear, dark gold with a creamy, off-white head. A head which held to the bottom of the glass. A strong malt flavor was followed by a big hop hit. Full bodied flavor with a lingering hop aftertaste.

Apr 1, 2007 Hand pump at New Hope. Clear amber body and sudsy, dirty white head. Nice distinct stonefruit and spice hop profile, plus fruit and nut malt signatures. Pleasant toasted maltiness in the flavor, which is semi-sweet with late hop character and medium bitterness. Clean and highly quaffable ESB.

Mar 9, 2007 On the hand pump at the New Hope location. Pours a translucent amber with a medium foamy off white head that left some lacing. Aroma of flowers, caramel, orange, mixed fruits, slight toasted malts and some nuttiness. Fresh hop flavor, some light hop bitterness, flavorful but on the thin side. Some lingering caramel malt.

Feb 4, 2007 Loved it. One of my favorites at Triumph. Sweetish and malty with lots of body. Lightly bitter. Drinkable.

Jan 18, 2007 Out of the cask at the brewpub, served at cellar temp. The appearance was a nice brownish amber color, unfiltered, and with a solid cream white head. The aroma was mostly filled with hops, but little other character could be detected. The flavor was nicely balanced with a strong Goldings hop character and just enough caramel malt character to combat it. The head had fabulous retention and contributed to a nice, smooth, creamy mouthfeel. This is the first cask beer that I have tried and I have to say that I liked it a fair amount. Very solid beer from Triumph.

Sep 19, 2006 Handpump at the brewpub. No aroma but great look. Left a heafty head on it and stayed until the end. Decent flavor and really well balanced. Not enough bitterness. Good brew.
