Mar 16, 2008 Bottle shared by goldtwins. Crystal clear beer with a rich orange/golden appearance. Very clean rich munich malt toastiness. Freshly bready and lightly sweet with just a kiss of floral hops on the back. A very solid O-fest.

Mar 15, 2008 Shared, thanks to goldtwins. Clear golden pour. Aroma is toasted caramel malt, sweet and typical of the style. Flavor is the same; toasted sweet caramel malt, light bitterness. Average for the style.

Dec 30, 2007 Bomber; October 2007 Petaluma Valley Rotary Fund Raiser label. Roasted malt aroma with a bit of floral? Coppery amber color with tiny bubbles and a transient white head. Medium body with rather sharp carbonation. Caramel roast flavor, but there is definitely balancing bitter. A bit spicey. Finishes quite dry. Seems more of an ESB than anything else.
