Feb 9, 2008 Bottle. Dark copper color, cloudy. Nice Off white head, little if any lacing but small foam lingers throughout. Some floaters and sediment, in cold storage for about 6 months but did not mar the taste. Aroma of caramel-hops. Malty yeast and hops pallet with a dry caramel bitter sweet flavor, no lingering bitter after taste. Good all around flavor and full body. Like to find this again.

May 24, 2007 Updated: Jun 3, 200712oz bottle, with no obvious freshness date - just an obscure code. Pours a surprisingly rich dark copper that I wasn’t expecting. Floaty chunks could be seen in the bottle before opening, but not once poured. Aroma is spicy and rather nice, but not particularly hoppy. Initial taste is crisp and sparkly from carbonation, that quickly blends into a nicely rich full taste. There’s a nice little bit of spiciness to the taste that is nicely balanced with the hops, along with some fruitiness. I am very pleasantly surprised by the quality of this beer. I thought that this was like an IPA, but I got something quite different and pleasing instead. I wish more were made like this. This was delicious.
