Jan 24, 2010 (bottle - 22 oz) Copper pour with a thin layer of white foam and very subdued carbonation. Mild malty aroma with some hints of caramel and a definite hop presence at the end. Flavor is nice and malty at the beginning but quickly fades to a bitter and peppery hop middle. You can definitely taste the Chinook as it nears the finish and dries out, leaving a pleasantly bitter finish on the tongue.

Nov 18, 2009 Bottle. Hazy orange amber with a thick beige head. Nutty toffee and floral resinous hop aromas vie for attention. Toffee and nutty malt flavours with delicious floral fruity hops (orange blossom, tangerine) and a big resinous bitter finish. Delicious!

Nov 7, 2009 Bottle. 22 oz. Pours slightly cloudy amber with a fresh, floral, tan head. Aroma of hops, vanilla, caramel, lavender, barley, and sweet malts. Medium bodied with a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Modest warming in the finish, which is slow burning and nice. Great bitter. Tastes more like a moderate IPA.

Oct 26, 2009 Updated: Nov 3, 2009On-tap @ Tangletown, E-Fields, and Serious Pie. Great british malt backbone, complex profile with toffee sweetness and a light hop aroma. Very quaffable and a "wise" choice so to speak. No flaws and incredibly consistent from tap to bottle, pairs well with a lot of different meals.

Oct 23, 2009 22oz from ditmeir - thanks, Eric! Nice hazy amber pour with a moderate head that reduces quickly. Sweet floral hops in the aroma along with some fragrant toffee notes, very inviting and balanced. The mouthfeel is nice and full, and the candied flavors mingle very nicely with the flavorful style, and it tapers off with a pleasantly dry finish. Really fine example of the style to me.
