Jun 13, 2006 Just watched the movie, and it seems fitting. had this at the Iowa City Brewfest last August, and I think I liked it, so let’s try it again to be sure. 16.9oz bottle, no date. Aroma of British hops, caramel, and raisins. Pours a clear copper with a quickly dissipating off-white head. Taste is much the same. Light bodied, lighter carbonation. Just a little bitterness. Not as good as I remembered, but what ever is?I realize my palate isn’t that great, picking up miniscule differences in british beers, but this reminds me of Young’s St. Nick, only in more of a session beer form.

Jun 12, 2006 Bottled. Pours a pale amber with a persistent, rocky, off-white head. Aroma of citrus and dusty malt. Medium body and light carbonation, and somewhat watery. Taste of caramel, bubblegum and grapefruit with a dry piney finish with just the vaguest hint of burning witches. A bit of creamy character comes out when it warms up a bit, but it still goes watery in the middle.

Jun 10, 2006 From bottle. Pleasant sweet malty aroma. Light copper appearance with a slight head. Medium carb. I felt the beer has a strong flavour, but also tangy maybe. Good bitter. Overall the beer seemed to grow on me. I dont think I found the Holy Grail of beer in this though.

Jun 9, 2006 Bottle. Pours amber with thin white head. Faint floral hop aroma and some cookie dough. Flavor is kind of muted, especially the hops. The malt is mostly what I taste. Some bitterness in the finish. Creamy mouthfeel, easy drinking, medium to light body.

Jun 6, 2006 Not much aroma on opening, slight citrus overtone noted. A bit pale in color for my preference. Flavor was okay but on the bland side. No harsh finish though which was a plus. Had a little watery of a mouthfeel.
