Caramel color with fluffy off white head. Sweet malt aroma with fruit and hops. Taste starts bitter with a sweet malt base. This brew is medium-light bodied. Finishes bitter. Really good beer.

At Sudwerk Beerfest 2009. This amber ale poured with a foamy tan head and a toffee aroma. There is a slightly chalky roasted malt flavor with a balanced hop bitterness and some spice. Not bad.

bottled, pours medium amber body with small tan head, sweet malt aroma with mild spice and light floral hops, very mild sweetness up front with full malt flavor in middle with some lingering hop bitters, very nicely balanced

Pretty good. Nice bitterness not too much to an IPA but still present, sweet and malty too. Good for the brewery.

I’m getting quite a fruity profile from this - from the aroma to the finish. It’s nice. It’s also the beer by which to remember Uma Thurman in Henry & June (1990).

12 oz bottle at Stockholm Beer Festival 2008. Amber color. Toffee and fruity orange marmelade in the aroma. The flavor is malty and biscuity with medium bitterness and restrained fruity hops as well as some orange marmelade. Very drinkable.

courtesy of goodzoid10. Pours amber with white head. Aroma of floral / grassy hops with notes of malts. Taste is hoppy, malty with a near sugary and buttery mouthfee. Very smooth with a light bitter finish. Alcohol seemed more pronounced than anticipated.l This is some excellent and well crafted beer.
