JorisPPattyn (4227), Antwerpen, Belgium Apr 25, 2008 Foxy-amber with a yellowish head. Toffee and faraway hops, a bit nutty in character. Nutty again in the taste, bready, but with a watery finish, falling flat. Bit spritzy, but also a bit empty. Ho-hum, not really great.
Ibrew2or3 (1571), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA Jul 5, 2008 12oz bottle (4% ABV) pours clear deep copper with thin off white to tan head. The mild aroma starts with spicy noble hops followed by sweet to crystal type malts. Like the aroma the taste begins with a quick sting of spicy hop bitterness. A solid roasty to sweet malty note quickly takes over and becomes more and more crystal and caramel as the taste progresses toward the finish. The experienced ends with the addition of a mild floral hop note. This beer seems light on the hops for the style but has plenty of malty goodness. bitbucket (1455), Kirkland, Washington, USA Jun 22, 2008 On tap a the Zion Pizza & Noodle Co, located in the heart of Springdale Utah, gateway to Zion National Park. Pours clear dark gold with a lacy white head. Medium body and light carbonation. Citrus and peach nose, and a soft peachy quality to the taste, which sits nicely beside the bread and citrus. A refreshing and super-sessionable beer for hot days. pinkzambia (863), Boise, Idaho, USA Feb 12, 2008 Tap: Like swoopjones, I experienced the lighter ABV as well. Dark gold/copper color with a small off-white head. Sweet hop aroma with a mild hop flavor. it has a nice full-bodied finish. swoopjones (1018), Buffalo, New York, USA Feb 11, 2008 On tap. Decent APA. Light ABV due to UTAH laws. Amber colored pour with decent piney & citrus aroma. Malts balance well. Nice session APA
