COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This amazing unfiltered Autumn brew falls somewhere between Cricket Hill’s popular "American Ale" and their equally-popular "Hopnotic IPA" but takes on a taste all it’s own. A fantastic Ale that one must seek on the journey of microbrew obsession.

podey (497) - New York, New York, USA - JAN 15, 2013
On tap. Deep cloudy copper color. The hops stand out in this one in the finish. Overall a decent bitter.

Beerdedone (2350) - Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA - DEC 22, 2012

Cybercat (2472) - Georgia, USA - SEP 22, 2012
Aroma is quite hoppy and woody, rather like an IPA, with a nice undertone of - yep - autumn leaves, as well as a subtle note of yeast. Pours a hazy amber with an extremely thick, fine-bubbled, persistent pale creamy-tan head. Sharp flavor is quite hoppy, more at an IPA, quite bitter but not fiercely so, with a nice dry-leaf undertone and malty and honey hints. Quite tasty! Smooth texture has average body and good fizz. This ’un will have you singing "Autumn Leaves" on the Autumn Equinox! (At least in the northern hemisphere - happy spring to folks south of the Equator.)

daknole (7205) - Scottsdale, Arizona, USA - JUL 14, 2012
Amber pour, light head. Ho hum. Floral hops and caramel malt. Another mediocre bitter...imagine that.

rbrazell (974) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - JUL 7, 2012
Hazy orange pour with a fluffy white head. Nose is spice, pale malts, grains, touch of yeast. Flavor is peppery yeast, hop spiciness and ending on a bitter note. Not too shabby.

drowland (4998) - Jacksonville, Florida, USA - APR 7, 2012
4/7/12. 12oz bottle thanks to PorterPounder. Slightly unclear reddish pour with a nice, thick, off-white head that sticks forever and laces plenty. Lightly bready aroma with touches of citrus, tartness, honey, and light grains. Slightly bitter flavor with grainy malts, toast, some caramel, a hint of citrusy tartness, and some tea. Interesting. Not bad.

unclemattie (3711) - Georgia, USA - MAR 16, 2012
12oz bottle. Yeast cake settled at bottom of bottle, forced to leave an inch in the bottle. Hazy orange amber color. Thick, light tan head. Aromas of yeast esters and malt. Very fizzy. light bodied. Tastes of caramel and some bitter pine. Finishes with a balanced lingering bitterness. (3276)

PorterPounder (4612) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - MAR 10, 2012
Savannah, Ga - Habersham Beverage Warehouse - 12 oz bottle. Medium copper pour, off-white head, good lacing. Floral notes in the aroma. with hints of spruce. Flavor has some good subtle bitterness, some muted citrus notes, a bit bit of grassiness and a bit of back end nuttiness. Hint of mint to round it out. Thick enough mouthfeel. Much better than expected.

Bottle. Copper / golden pour. Aromas of skunk, earth, mild hop and caramel malt. Taste is thin, nut, caramel, toffee and spice. It is what it is.
