Mar 31, 2008 A rich, brass-colored ale with a pleasant aroma. Nutty, bready taste - a little dry and sour too. Hops are a little sharp, but not too intense. Pretty well carbonated. It is nice to see a brew pay tribute to the great Brooklyn Dodgers teams of the 1950s.

Mar 30, 2008 12 oz bottle, courtesy of my sister and bro-in-law. Pours a clear medium coppery orange with a good-sized off-white head that lingers and laces. Aroma is very nice - sweet toasty Marris Otters mingle with a variety of hops - the English varieties dominate, but there is that distinctive U.S. aroma from the Cascades. Slight metallic quality on the nose as well. Flavour dead on for an EPA, at least the ones I’ve had. Lots of malt but expertly balanced with a good dose of woody, twiggy hops. Earthy and fresh. Low carbonation lends a very soft mouthfeel and the abv% make this a truly excellent session ale. Good show, and a perfect beer for tomorrow’s MLB season opener. Play ball!

Mar 29, 2008 Pours a nice amber. Not sure if this is really a pale ale, more like an ESB. Yeasty, bready aroma. Decent hops in the taste, very well-balanced and smooth. A good ale, especially as a session ale.

Mar 28, 2008 Pours a deep golden color with decent foamy head. Weak aroma but slightly sweet. Taste was less than spectacular and was very light on the palate. Not a bad beer but far from a good beer.

Mar 14, 2008 A decent pale ale, pours with a darker copper color, not quite amber. Minimal head, had a strong initial taste, but after that was more ordinary.

Mar 12, 2008 Pours a light copper color with medium off-white head that dissipates quickly and leaves little lacing. Nose is muted floral and malt with a dry, slightly sweet mouthfeel. Flavor picks up the floral nose and adds a hint of grass, all a little on the malty side. My big sdsilike with thiss was the finish, which was dry to the point of being stale, with a lingering cottony after-taste.
Okay, but nothing to write home about.

Mar 9, 2008 Not bad, but nothing remarkable either, in fact its only been fifteen minutes since I finished this and I can barely remember it.
