Pours amber with a light, fine, white head. Aroma is lightly grapey, fruity smell. Flavor is sweet with tropical, grapey flavors. Not bad, not great either.

Aug 19, 2008 Light ruby pour, slight white head. Mostly malt with light toffee/caramel. Some of the earthy tones of Arcadias other brews, but not enough hop bite. A pretty average amber with a little more alcohol than usual.

Aug 7, 2008 Unfiltered amber with the trademark (at least from the bottles I bought) colossal tan head. Aroma of grassy hops, cereal, light sweet malts and something musty. Over carbonated and caramel, earthy hops with a mild bitter – yet sweet – finish.

A very nice looking darker orange, cloudy with plenty of rolling carbonation for a show. Big foamy unfading head, probably because it was subject to a sudden jolt. Good carbonation. Chocolaty and malty at times. Quickly revealing lacing. Strong on the alky side as far as taste impression goes. Long lingering bitter finish. Quite a personality.

Jul 21, 2008 12 oz. notched at "E" and "1", whatever that means. Cloudy copper with a huge head that walks out of the bottle and sticks around. Spicy peach, caramel, some earthy old-style barbershop hair tonic and grain in the aroma. Flavor is the same, plus some acidic apple-cherry notes after a bit, and a woody caramel apple finish. Light-medium body is smoothish and dryish with a little too much frothiness at times.

Jun 29, 2008 Wow what a great and different beer. This is not an amber ale, though. This tastes like a specialty grain or spice beer. Aroma of sorghum and caramel malt. Pour was a nice medium amber with a one finger off white head. Taste was very different so I can’t describe it. Nice and bitey with a floral taste throughout. Very refreshing, just can’t put my finger on these tastes.
