Have had from both tap and bottle in Ithaca, NY. Rating is based on tap, although bottle was not much worse. Great red ale.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft at pony bar HK. Pours a deep, murky amber body with soapy off white lacing. Aroma is cascade, spice and light malt. Mouthfeel is medium with notes of bitter grapefruit skins, light citrus, malt and spice.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
12oz bottle, best by Dec 2012...better drink up! Served at around 40-45F.
Pours semi-hazy copper/red with a two finger off-white light beige head that recedes to a small foamy cap and leaves some decent lacing behind.
Aroma is piney, citrusy, somewhat earthy hops, good malt of dark fruit and caramel. Good strength.
Flavor is caramel malt, dark fruits (black cherries), decent hop kick with some citrus and resinous hops, mild sweetness, mild to moderate bitterness, a little alcohol.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied, a little sticky, moderate carbonation.
Pretty good hoppy Amber Ale. It’s right at the best-by date so I bet the hops would be really nice if fresher.
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Lots of hops right up front followed by a nice, smooth malty backbone. Kind of sweet in the finish.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours dark reddish amber with good head on draft. Aroma is hoppy with pine and floral scents but is subdued. Taste is heavy on malt and strong bitter.
