Ughsmash (3070), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Oct 30, 2007 On tap at Delafield Brewhaus. Poured slightly-hazy medium golden with a nice short cap of off-white head. The aroma picked up sweet darker grapefruit and caramel with decidedly bitter grapefruit and pine accents.. came across a touch too sweet, but was otherwise enjoyable. Very sweet caramel and fruity maltage at the flavor core with a higher level of pine and grapefruit bitterness surrounding.. long, lengthy warm and bitter finish.. tasty! Medium-bodied with moderate carbonation.. nice bitterness, decent balance. muzzlehatch (4424), Burlington, Vermont, USA Sep 17, 2006 10 oz draught at the brewpub in early August 2006. Dark hazy gold with a moderate stable head and thick lacing....nose of apple-peach, bit of pine sap, touch of floral character, subdued but pleasant enough....much stronger flavor profile, bold big citric hop bitterness throughout, juicy and wet through to the finish, the body is just a tad thin....really refreshing and pleasant though ultimately not exciting. KingpinIPA (817), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Jul 18, 2006 Golden amber color. Smell of hop, malt and honey. Taste of sweet hops mixed in with some flowers. A malty, sweet bitterness at the end. robertsreality (2462), Minnesota, USA Dec 5, 2005 Yellow / Light Gold Coloring with White Ring. Crisp Hops Aroma. Crispy Clean Hops Pilsener Taste..Dry Hop Aftertaste... More Hops Then Anything But Still a Very Drinkable Summer Brew. StewardofGondor (1934), Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Jul 15, 2005 Clear bright gold with a sudsy, dense white head. Enjoyable nose: bittersweet hops bouquet, potatoes hoisted from the soil, some honeysuckle and sugar. Clean, brisk and bitter. Hops manifest in a flavor profile of fresh pine needles and acupuncture the palate in a similar nature. Enough malt sweetening to get by, but I’d like a stronger showing from caramel malts. Solid rendition by the Brewhaus.
