Golden ale with a thin white head. Nice floral hops in aroma with nice caramel malts. Good lightly sweet malt with notes of lemon and honey and good residual honey hops. Medium bodied. On tap at Clark’s Ale House, Summer 2005.

Fresh, lively, floral, citrus, earthy, hop forward aroma. Clear golden body with a generous and lasting white head that laces well. Citrus, floral and earthy hops over a light, crisp toasted malt base. Medium body with refreshing crisp carbonation. Sampled from a 12oz growler with Olivier_MTL and Rastacouere at the service area off I87N in Glenns Falls, NY.

(draft @ MacGregor’s - Henrietta, NY) Gold color with a fizzy white head. Aroma is very hoppy and peppery. Definitely smelled more like an IPA. The taste began with a very hoppy sensation, but quickly disappeared and left no aftertaste. Very strange, but very drinkable.

Couleur jaune tirant vers le doré. Mousse blanche partiellement persistante adhérant à la paroi du verre. Signé de houblons, conifères, pins, résineux et citronné sous une faible quantité et épaisseur de malt grillé, biscuité. Corps d’épaisseur semi-mince, carbonatation piquante. Growler, Half Time N .Y., Septembre 2005.

Draft at the Drafting Room, Exton. Pours gold with a medium white head. I got aromas of hops and pale malt in this, with the same flavors. Not terribly exciting, but not bad on a summer day.
