Jun 2, 2008 Definitely best on top in a clear dixie cup. Nice dark golden colour and thin but lingering head. Malty, light sweetness, clean yet creamy finish.
Not a beer to impress with, but exceptionally drinkable and far better than anything else in its price range. ($1.50 - $2 a pint locally).

Dec 16, 2003 Golden dark yellow in color with a firm off-white head about a finger high with some looser bubbles staying present, fades slowly to nothing, lace in fast drippings that don't stick. Aroma has a fairly nice malty sweetness with a great breadish tone of sourdough, nice and fresh with just a touch of grassy/citrusy hops. Taste is more of the same with a nice malt load, good bready sweetness of bagel dough with some nuttyness upfront and into the midway, light hops dot the finish which lingers of some sticky sweet malts and slight crispness. Good smooth medium body, clean, light creamyness ventures well as it warms, very nice drinker at that stage, sure its not as hoppy as most Pale Ales but for some reason that didn't bother me with this one. Its quite nice.

Oct 24, 2003 A good ale. They tried for the English style and came pretty close. I can taste the limestone water which makes it similar to Bass somewhat.
I like it.

Jul 24, 2002 Dense rocky head. Deep amber hue showing a zesty carbonation through lines of tiny bubbles. A really nice appearance. The aroma is sweetly malty with a slight bit of hop. The flavor is of fruity, delicate malt lightly backed by hops. Light to medium in body. Not astonishingly different from a standard pale ale, but very unique in its own way which keeps me going back for more. A very drinkable beer.

Feb 20, 2002 a friend gave me a bottle to rate, so i gotta talk it up even if it tastes like it was brewed in a clogged rain gutter (hi dan!). fortunately, i don’t have to lie: golden like a haystack in the evening sun and foaming like a race horse, this is an attractive libation. the aroma is modest: a little honey on a slice of roman meal bread. fairly sweet, and creamy. no danger of any ’harsh bitter aftertaste’, the hops were evidently used very sparingly. almost tastes like the beer itself ran through that limestone underlying the bluegrass region. still, a terrific, sweetish ballpark beer.

Feb 15, 2008 Aroma of fresh bread. Pours redish amber with a short lived white head. Tastes malty and bitter although equally it doen’t seem balanced. The two are divided between the begining and the finish, something I don’t see often in any beer. Medium light mouthfeel. Overall impressive, mainly for the unbalanced palate that provides complexity and a desirable characteristic that is uncommon in beer.
