Jul 15, 2009 A great offering from AleSmith - I take a couple of bottles of this home every time I visit Socal. I’m always amazed at the balance of malt to hops, and the incredible clarity of this beer. The quality of the ingredients relly comes through as with all AleSmith beers.

Jul 8, 2009 Pours a deep ruby, very sparkling when held up to light, with a small tan head. Aroma has a lot of caramel and malt, a little dark fruit too. Sweeter aroma than expected. Pretty full flavor; I can see why this is near the top of its class; Nice thick, sticky malts, with just the right amount of hop bitterness. Very creamy flavor/finish. Nutty to boot. Palate is full, hearty. I can dig it. Overall, very good minus.
