Mar 31, 2005 Mild American hop nose is overshadowed by buttery aroma. Opaque amber-brown with thin ring and partial cover of off-white head. Fairly hoppy and bitter but flavour also shows a fair buttery character. Extremely dry with not a lot of malt character to support. Medium-light body with moderate carbonation. Sampled at the brewpub with MartinT, muzzlehatch and Rastacouere.

Mar 28, 2005 Butterscotch and a sweet, round malt body proceeds into workmanlike residual bitterness...Oversweet, not entirely cohesive bold flavors create a short-lived interest...Probably interesting for the neophyte slowly crossing over...

Nov 17, 2004 (Growler) Pours a medium, frothy white head and a copper body. Nose was mainly of malt and fizzy. The flavour was rather hoppier than I had expected but all in all the recipe was bland and watery. Alltogether a sub-par beer but the company I kept was definitely good. Thanks for sharing this Sean!

Jan 20, 2004 Sample at the brewpub. Translucent copper, creamy looking. Very light malty nose, watery body, slightly woody, bitter quick finish. Rare it is that I find a brewpub red ale that I would ever think of tasting again; this is no exception.

Nov 24, 2003 Amber toned color with extreme haziness(unfiltered/or never clearified?).Bready/yeasty aroma and flavor with a tiny malt character.
