Bright copper coloured beer with small but tight and creamy head that leaves a lot of lace. The aroma is dominated by a rich, piney hops, with some butter, malts and alcohol. The taste is crisp, lemony hops, little hops and nuts.

Had in a bottle at a bar. Light amber color. Hoppy with a great malt flavor. Excellent taste left on the palate.

Bottle: Pours a nice orange amber color with a nice white head. The nose is fragrant with some nice juicy hops, the light maltiness lets the hops come out, even as light as they are, they taste very fresh and citrusy. The flavor has a great balance of body; bready biscuity malts and a floral cascade note in the tail. Very nice body but not heavy, amazing drinkability and quaffability. This is a damn good beer all-around!

Clear light copper, foamy head that hangs around for a while, nice lacing. Aroma of resiny, piney hops. Very crisp to begin, prickly carbonation and bitterness on the front of the tongue, very lively. A bit malty with a hint of caramel and bread Finishes with just the right bitterness, and a citrus hop bite. Flowery, resiny hops in the aftertaste. This beer gave me a while new faith in lagers after I had written them of forever.

Bottle. Wo! quite a nose here, strong piney hops (hints of celery here) quite intriguing. Taste is hoppy, pine pretty heavy for a lager.

Brilliant amber color with a light tan head. Big fruity apricot/peach aromas with grainy pale malts. Rich, frothy mouthfeel. Refreshing flavors of grainy malt grist with lightly sweet honey.

A decent, light and lively lager. Floral aromas with a hint of caramel. Finely balanced. Much more malt on the palate -- cereal grain, wheat, slightly toasted. Dry hop finish.

Sampled in Boston. A pretty well made lager, fresh with mild hopping and malts. Drinks smooth. Has a hint of herbs that are nice and crisp. Very nice brew.
