Mild, herbal, grassy, leafy, musty aroma. Hazy, tan-copper, generous, fine bubbled, off white head that lasts and laces. Herbal and grapefruit, citrus hops with grainy malts underneath. Medium light body with soft texture and assertive carbonation. Sampled at Kennett Square Brewfest 2005.

Draft. Pours an orange body with a thin white head. Light fruit esters, dry pears, and a malty body. Bland fruit warming and rather run of the middle.

Draft at Maple Shade. And now ladies and gentlemen we bring you to the let down of the day.......Poured a good looking orangey amber body sitting underneath a medium sized frothy off white head. The aroma was barely detectable with just a slight touch of earthiness and not much else going on. The flavor was all earth and by earth that is a nice way of saying it tasted like dirt. Once again this one was a let down.

On tap at Iron Hill in Media, PA (05/26/09). Amber in color with a decent sized off-white head. Aroma is of hops, vegetables and easrth. Taste is of hops, earth, wet leaves, soil, and compost with a little cirus. Not a big fan.

Tap at the brewery. Body-dark straw, lots of CO2 bubbles sticking to the sides, very thick ring of bubbles, medium head. Nose-malty, light rotten fruit, cherries, very malty with a little bit of stale hops. Taste-light Alka-Seltzer, medium bitter, low to medium dry, simple, high CO2. A Basic English Ale with the usual malt backbone.

On tap at brewpub in Newark and Wilmington. Poured a golden amber color with a thinning white head. Some buttery notes in the aroma. This is a fruity and flavorful ale. A decent malt body with a hop bite. Buttery sweetness with a hint of citrus fruits. Bitter and oily in the finish. Not bad. I enjoyed this beer.

Draft at Iron Hill, Lancaster...pours iced-tea in color, small off-white head...aroma was kind of light, some sweet fruit, malts, mild hops...flavor was much of the same but also had a trace of banana/clove...seems to be a common thing with Iron Hill...I tend to prefer their beers without it.
