MaxxDaddy (205), New York, New York, USA Feb 12, 2008 On tap @ the brewpub. Pours amber with a fluffy white head. A good amount of lacing left behind by this one. Aroma is rather hoppy, though not in that full, all-out IPA way, along with some fruit. Flavor was mostly bitter with some good malt support. Sticky on the palate with a hoppy finish. Like dmac said, a brew you could drink all day if you felt like it. dmac (712), Toms River, New Jersey, USA Oct 1, 2007 Draft at the brew pub. Honey amber body with a great thick frothy head, perfect looking in every way. Aroma of flowers and citrus with just a trace of bready maltiness. Palate on this was medium body and smooth as velvet, I could of knocked these back all day. Flavor was slight malts and a bitter hop finish. One fantastic beer, just wish I got a t-shirt from the brw pub. DougShoemaker (2491), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 29, 2007 Green earthy hops aroma, fine malt, copper, pours a small tan head. Fresh hops give a pleasant bitter taste, nice malt influence too. Light bodied, really well balanced, complex, bitter. Terrific! Sammy (2783), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 25, 2007 On-tap at the brewpub. This was the clear winner in taste, except for a chemical aroma. Almost an imperial IPA in bitterness. Six hops supports that. Lots of lace. Offsetting malt. Radek Kliber (3081), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 15, 2007 On tap at Brewpub
Nose:Citric, fruity aroma. Well hoped nose. Light sweetness but hops are more on IPA than typical British bitter.
Appearance:Clear amber, neat good creamy off tanned head.4-
Flavour/Palate:Fresh, well hoped ale . Smooth soft character of Bedondaine works well with this style. Potent dose of alpha acids. Sweet malts add body and extra dimension. Finish aromatic. Classic superbly drinkable session bitter.
