Two fingers of head on a fairly clear, but deep red colored body.
The smell is only faintly caramel.
The taste is has a mild malt sweetness to start, then a mild grapefruit bitterness.
The texture is crisp with moderate carbonation.
This is an easy drinkin’ beer but still has some nice flavor.

3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Draught at the Rogue Distillery & Public House, Portland. From notes (March 2010). Listed on the menu as 6.4% alc. and 55 IBU. Raw grassy and somewhat harsh aroma. Clear coppery color. The hoppiness comes across as a bit scratchy and aggressive. Some metallic notes in mid palate. Pleasant and heavy aftertaste. Maybe better than the bottled version.

2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle: light amber with thin beige head. Aroma is caramel and bisquits with a soft floral note. Flavor has a dry grainy bitterness, some hay, a touch of caramel, and a mild floral hop ending. Ok beer a little blah on flavor and bitter seems a little out of balance.
