Aubrey (2592), Denver, Colorado, USA Jul 24, 2004 Clear and medium gold with orange shadows; nice lace patterns. Medium carbonation; had a nice creaminess / rich malt base to it -- cookie, caramel. Hop flavors were nice: grapefruit and a little pine. Hop aromas (flowers, pine) were nice as well, though not as pronounced. Quite a bit of bitterness in the finish and aftertaste. Had a little sourness and a slight amount of acidity, which kind of gave it a sharp edge, but it wasn’t too bad. Overall, I enjoyed the beer.
