Appearance is a cloudy yellow golden with a slightly lacing white head. Flavors and aromas are pale malt with a light dry mouth. There are some light bready tones too. Hops in this guy are missing a little.

Draft at Flying Saucer Nashville. Pours amber with a white head. Nice perfumy, piney hop aroma. Initial flavor of caramel, toasted bread with a sharp hoppy middle, that brings out some citrus notes. Bitter and semi dry finish, that had a hint of soapiness that was a bit distracting. However, this has an aggressive bitterness and good malt backbone to counter it. Not to shabby.

UPDATED: MAY 7, 2007 Cask @ The Pub at Rookwood Mews. Pours amber in color with a small white mostly lasting head. Aroma is typical od an IPA, very hoppy with some malt undertones. Flavor has all the hop bitterness; I get some citrus and a little pine. This is combined with a malt presence just strong enough to offset the hops a bit. Slightly unbalanced, but good. Medium mouthfeel. The fact that it came from a cask probably smoothed this one out a bit.
