May 16, 2009 Bomber from the rip and run. A clear amber with steady carbonation yeilding a decent regenerative head. Alternating wash of hops then malt. Some overripe fruit covered in caramel tones distract me from the initial refreshing mouthfeel. Finish is a bit muddled from this and slightly hoppy.

May 10, 2009 Deep amber coloured body with a very thin off-white head. Aroma of malt and nuts. Medium-bodied; Clean nutty flavours in the taste override all the hops. Aftertaste shows more clean nutty flavours on the palate with strong alcohol and a light english hop taste. Overall, decent, but the amnesia bitter is better. I sampled this as my final beer in Portland, Oregon on 09-September-2006.

May 8, 2009 Bottle from Bottle Trek via an internet order. Poured a clear bronze color with the smell of carmel coming from my glass. Wonderful balance of hops and malts which my this style on of the most drinkable for me. This beer was excellent!!

May 1, 2009 Bottle sampled at SF International Beer Fest. Copper color with an nice off-white head. Aroma of caramel malt and citrusy hops. Flavor is more of the same, northwest-style C-hops stand out, which I think work really well in this style. Medium body.

Apr 29, 2009 $3.49 @ Bottle Barn--I think this is my first Elysian beer. 22oz, no date. Clear copper orange with a two-finger light yellowish white head, good retention. Some caramel malts are dominant with just a touch of toasted malts. I can only pick up on a little generic citrus hops (Cascade, I think). Flavor is much the same with lots of caramel and a little toasted malts, but seemed a little bland. Not much hop presence, though bitterness was surprisingly peaked at a 4 in the dry finish. Light carbonation with a medium body. Easy drinking, and not too bad.

Apr 26, 2009 nice malty aroma - hazy brown/orange pour with medium fluffy light brown head - notes of carmel and citrus hops but a bit too bitter for the style, this doesn’t necessarily mean that it is bad as it is overall a pretty good beer

Apr 19, 2009 Draft at Stanton Public. Poured a clear medium orange color with an off white head. Smelled of light grass and caramel. Light to medium bodied with grass, toffee, caramel, and steeping barley flavors. Decent.
