A wonderfull fall ale. Rich and hearty, slightly sweet. Word to the wise, I had a friend tell me she had one in a pub that was so bitter she sent it back. I’m not sure where she was. I have yet to get one I didn’t enjoy. BrewDad (2366), Olympia, Washington, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Oct 7, 2007 Pint, on draft at Virginia Inn, Seattle, WA. Dark copper with thin light head, could smell the hops as it was served to my beermat. Wonderful citrus and light pine aroma, hints of grass and lemon. So much good hop in the nose. The body was perfect, rich sweet malts to balance the big hops. Surprised at the gravity here and the gracious amount of alcohol. It’s a big beer that is the perfect vehicle for the big fresh harvested hop delivery. eaten witha nice cheeseplate on the outside patio watching the tourists walk by...perfect.
