This was tasted at the brewry in Fredericksburg. Jeff Fitzpatrick was busy making and bottling while I sampled their products. A nice gentleman by the name of Jack was very helpful in teaching me about the brewery. They were making Brown Ale for another brewer. The lager was excellent very creamy and more maltiness than other lager with a hint of hops. It had amedium body with a wonderful head with very small bubbles. I also learned about a new vessel that is pressurized. I will try in the future.

Dec 9, 2007 Pour deep gold, with a slight haze. Nice head lingers well, leaving rings of lace on the glass. Aroma is soft malt, with hints of hops. Perhaps a touch of sourness in the aroma. Flavor is all malt, but with a nice hop balance, although staying firmly in the malty arena. Aftertaste is smooth, light malt, and leaves a pleasant soft sweetness on the tongue. Body is medium.

Oct 23, 2006 Sampled on draught from the Floyd Fandango (from the brewer). Deep straw pour with a diminished head and webbed spiderlace. There is a slightly skunky-hopped nose, a bit reminiscent initially of a pils. There are light flavors of melon, citrus, grass, sour grains and an abundance of hops. The finish is crisp, clean and bitter... with a slightly lingering pepper. Cleanses the palate well, and would be a nice addition to a summer workday.

Oct 1, 2006 Sampled at the brewery, now rating from my take-home 22 oz bomber. Poured a true amber color with an initial burst of carbonation that fizzled quickly. Light flowery aroma. Slick and sweet, this has quite the perfumey flourish of a hoppy contribution.
