UPDATED: JUL 31, 2011 On tap at the brewpub. It pours an almost clear body, golden in color and topped by a finger-thick off-white head soon diminishing into a thin layer of bubbles. Some lacings. The aroma has citrus and pine cones, a flowery touch and some caramel. Piney and citrusy flavor, good bitterness, and in the far back there’s some caramel sweet malts. Medium body with pleasant co2. Bitter, piney finish. A pleasant and refreshing one, but I wouldn’t be sad if they added even more hops in it. Rating: 6-3-7-3-14-3.3. 100812

On tap at the brewpub, as Sommer Ale. A hazy, golden orange beer with a small, off-white to beige head. The aroma has butterscotch and candy, citrusy hops too. Some sugar. The flavor is as the aroma too buttery, a trademark for the brewery it seems. Bitterness, grapefruit and caramel too. Medium body, slightly cardboardish and with a fine carbonation. Fine bitterness in the else buttery malty finish. Too much butterscoth in this one, would be nice without. 110415
