ChainGangGuy (1463), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Feb 6, 2008 (Listed as 5.5% when I visited the brewery).
Appearance: Clear, light copper body with a small white head.
Smell: Light pale maltiness to the aroma with faint notes of citrus and spicy hops.
Taste: Mild pale malt presence with a subtle sweetness. Flash of fruitiness. Light spicy hop character. Subdued hop bitterness. Bittersweet finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Alright for a pale! Perm (132), Tryon, North Carolina, USA Jan 30, 2008 The third time was the charm for me at the Jack of the Wood -- I sampled 3 of their draughts, and this, my third, was the "jackpot" (so to speak).
Appearance: Cloudy, reminiscent of a dark Hoegaarden, somewhat strawy.
Nose: Subtle, but solid.
Taste: This one was damn sexy. Grainy, hoppy, a nice bitter note with some snappiness to it, and a twist of apricot. Quality "English understatement" that I adore. I give this one an A+ in the flavor department.
Palate: Perfect.
Overall: Wonderful. A tremendous session beer. BlackDonald (724), On a beer trip all over the USA, California, USA Jan 29, 2008 This was just okay, but it was very soapy, had a nice after dinner flavor to it. Fruity nose, with a very light malt background. Weak for the style, but very drinkable. DragonStout (1141), Orlando, Florida, USA Sep 30, 2007 Sampled at the Brewpub.Pours a light amber color with a nice white head.Fruit and hop aroma. Flavor was thin with a spicy crispness. Finish was slightly bitter.
