Jul 15, 2008 Pours a hearty brown color with a fair head. Has a citrus flavor with malt and a nice amount of bitterness in the finish. Very drinkable.

Jul 13, 2008 Updated: Jul 18, 200818oz bottle: Aroma of sweet caramel malts and dried fruits and some nice bittering of hops, nice color of burnt orange with some effervesence, finishes with the final touch bitter. The only thing that kept me from rating higher is the tiny 1 finger and mild lacing. Overall, very nice will continue to drink this well made beer.

Jul 12, 2008 Poured from bottle 7/2008. Aroma of malt and fruit. Dark amber with rugged persistent head. Roasted malt and plenty of hops here. Toffee notes really noticed about midway through. Finished quite nicely too. Good stuff.

Jul 6, 2008 Half-liter bottle. Too warm for anything darker than this malty little number Malt’s the first thing I smell when I pop and pour, sweet with a touch of caramel. Dark, rich brown color, bubbly head that settles to a thin top layer. Taste is "sweet on the outside, dry in the middle." Some spice and a little apple cider in the malt, equalled by a light and thready All-England hop. Watery taste at the tip of the lip. Nice malt impression stays as I travel down the glass. Thin carbonation attempted to replicate mouthfeel of a cask pour, but it doesn’t quite match that texture here

Jul 5, 2008 6/10/08 On draught at the Dog & Pony, Renton, Wa. Aroma is malt forward, heavy on the caramel, with slight sourness and no hop flora. Appearance is hazy copper with a well maintained white head. Flavor is sour malt forward with moderate/low bittering of British hops. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a very low carb texture. Overall, the sourness is just too dominant, I wonder if this is an older keg.

does not count  Jul 2, 2008 Small head that quickly dissipates. Slight alcohol and hints of banana pudding and oak aromas. Very clear amber/oaky color. It’s the flavor that brings this one home. Beautiful sweet, malty, vanilla notes to begin, with slight roasted caramel toward the end. Alcohol appears toward middle. Hops are apparent yet subtle. Mouthfeel is medium and drinkable. Overall impression is......yummy!
