Jun 16, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a deep, clear, red-tea color; significant, creamy khaki head with solid retention and fine-bubbled lacing; a gorgeous pour. Good levels of caramel, mineral and earthy bitterness, and soft tea-like malts in the aroma; crisp with some nice biscuity notes. Medium, crisp mouthfeel: just perfect in the mouth: crisp, zesty bitterness (not anything rough: soft earthiness and mineral-driven hops) coupled to a solid malt core of crackers, tea, and bread; some red fruits and dried caramel at the edges; very beautifully composed beer, and just immensely drinkable stuff; very very impressed by this one. Lengthy finish: crackers, tea-like malts, some red fruits and lingering breadiness; ends crisp and on the dry side.

Jun 13, 2008 Pours copper, with a white head. Aroma is hops, malt, and some fruit...maybe peaches. Flavor is hops, malt, caramel, and fruit. A nice one, and fairly sedate, for the scratch series.

Jun 8, 2008 on tap-pours a light tan head with bubbles and copper/brown color. Aroma is northwest hops, some medium malt. Taste is medium malt, northwest and English hops, which makes this a lost effort to my taste and finishes thin. OK carbonation.

Jun 5, 2008 Bottle sampled with Mad_Indian. Pours Copper with a small off-white head. Aroma of caramel malts, citrus, slight fruit, and floral hops. The flavor has some slight sweetness to it, slight fruit, caramel, and floral bitterness in the finish. Slight thin body, decent brew.

Jun 5, 2008 Bottle. Pours deep coppery colored with 1-finger off-white head. Nose is fruity hops, caramel malt, perfumy rosey florals, mild berries. Tastes hoppy, piney, with floral, berry, honeydew, and spicy notes. Not bad, but not among my favorite scratches.
