Dec 14, 2007 750ml from Halftime - $15. Very high expectations, very quickly dashed. A very well made beer but just not delicious. Medium brown color, some fruit/hops aroma but nothing great. Lots of yeast and carbonation. Definitely skip this one.

Dec 13, 2007 750 ML Bottle-poured orange/amber color w/a moderate head. Dark fruit aroma. Flavors of plums, grapes, pine, peat, grape, & grass. Kind of gamey, reminded me of the Four but not as "refined", a little rougher around the edges. Nice change of pace, after dinner, nightcap type beer. Mouth feel is kind of thin. Alcohol is evedent.

Dec 13, 2007 Thanks to my SS for this
one!
Slightly hazy deep cinnamon body that tosses up a thick, lasting head of light tan.
Caramel malt and pears in the nose.
Sweet smooth, but rather one-dimensional.

Dec 13, 2007 This beer pours a deep cloudy reddish orange color with a medium white head. The initial aromas remind me of an ipa... Kinda grassy and piney. Once you take a sip, you get disappointed very quickly! This beer falls really short! Kinda watery, a little bland and not any character to this beer. I would consider this a VERY mild ipa. I actually paid $19.00 for this thing! I hesitated on buying it for wuite some time because of the price. I wish I had trusted my instincts. Do not buy this beer it is not worth the price! Cheers!

Nov 24, 2007 Bottle shared with GregClow, Hogtown Harry, Blankboy, and Jerc, courtesy of Harry. Mild yeast, sugar, malt aroma. Glowing reddish orange, medium white head - looks great. Taste - decent - sweet, sugar, yeast. Kind of bland and watery in finish. Didn’t leave much of an impression.

Nov 23, 2007 Pour is amber with a huge bubbly head and great lacing. Nose of caramel, herbs, malts and some raisins as well. Taste is a somewhat hoppy, Belgian spiced malt mixed with darker fruits. Very drinkable with a nice mouthfeel.

Nov 21, 2007 750ml Bottle: Sweet aroma smells of caramel, malts, herbs, yeast, brown sugar, raisins, and piney hops. Poured amber/copper in color with a large, foamy, rocky, off-white head that lasted throughout. Good lacing. Hazy. Sparkling. Flavor is medium sweet. Tastes of malts, dark fruits, roasted malts, herbs, candy sugar, raisins, alcohol, and pine and resin hops. Medium body. Average texture. Average to lively carbonation. Sweet but hoppy finish.

Nov 19, 2007 Bottle (750ml) shared with HogTownHarry, GregClow, tupalev & jerc -- courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a slightly hazy orange-amber with an average size semi-lasting off-white head. Aroma of sweet malt, floral hops, light spices, some fruit and Belgian yeast. Flavour of alcohol, floral hops, yeast and grain -- too boozy and the mix of an IPA with a Belgian beer doesn’t work for me, I’m not crazy about it. Medium bodied. Meh, this one’s not for me.
