2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Grainy golden color with a small foamy white head, that seems to have the starting signs of good retention. Malty, albeit somewhat chalky and grainy. Semi-sweet but not artifical tasting on the palate, some citrus, with some bready caramel notes. not extremely well balanced and probably not something I would seek out again, but not horrible.

Golden orange colored, moderate head, decent lacing and retention. Aroma is heavy on grain, with some alcohol and sugaryness. Light caramel and hops as well. Medium bodied, grainy, rough finish with some alcohol. Sloppy IMO.

Bottle. Pours clear orange with a lacy off-white head. Aroma of hay, toffee, flowers and mint? Medium body and active carbonation. Sweet caramel-coated taste with a crisp finish.

12 ounce bottle from By The Bottle in Vancouver, WA--Poured a thin orange-amber hue with a medium white head. Wheaty nose with some grainy malty toffee. Flat out middle of the road malts in the finish. Flavor was mild and kind of boring. Still not too bad.

UPDATED: AUG 5, 2009 Bottle... Poured the tone of cider with a thin head. Aroma is slightly funky, like sugared malt mixed with rotten fruit. Flavors are better though, with refreshing hops and fruity esters and malt that are reminiscent of a barley wine, but way more mellowed out of course. Kind of a Tangy citrus finish.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draft. Clear orange-amber, dense orange-tinted head leaving early lace. Fruity toffee aroma. Sweet malt (marzipan) and light fruit (apricot) in perfect balance, very flavourful. Moderate bitter finish. Very good.

Darker golden color with no head. Caramel malts are strong in the aroma with some sour fruits - maybe apples, a little butter and thats about it. Caramel and light butter, a touch of sour fruit too. Not real hoppy, maybe a little spicy if anything. A little alcohol is detectable too. It is alright.
