Jan 2, 2007 Bottled. Hints of wheats and piney hops on nose. Flavor is mild and hoppy; not too strong on finish. Enjoyable, a good "sipping" Pale.

Dec 11, 2006 Pours a medium amber with a diminishing off white head. Smells of pine, grapefruit, green apple, apricot and bread. Light and watery body with a moderate amount of carbonation. Poor head retention and lacing. Nice flavor of biscuits, caramel, pine, grapefruit and bread. Nothing exciting with this one, but the body has a certain simplicity to it which seems appropriate.

Dec 4, 2006 Golden amber color. Smell of hops, malt, light citrus and caramel. Taste of hops, syrup, apricots, orange peal and malt. Earthy bitterness at the end.

Nov 28, 2006 Pours an amber and smells of strong hops. This is unpasteurized and down right delicious. A great session beer that packs a decent hop punch.

Nov 25, 2006 12 oz.bottle, "Bottled during" Mar. Nice malty beery smell when I pop the cap, always a good start. Color is closer to a brown ale than a pale, thin head. Smell in the glass shows fruity malts and some fresh dry hops. Taste goes steep into malts, Plenty of sweetness left over, barely matched by the hop load. A slightly different take on a pale ale.

Nov 21, 2006 Ahh.... the Lakefront Variety 8 pack. Such a great package. 8 different beers. I like to taste in two’s, so now I have 16 of Lakefronts finest. This beer is more that I expected. Seems to be their IPA, it’s more than a pale. Fresh (bottled the 2nd week of Nov.) and well received. Good job Lakefront!

Nov 14, 2006 Slightly hazy copper body, thin off-white head. Bready aroma with grassy, slightly piney hops. Biscuity body with light sweet breads, balanced by earthy, grassy hops. Pedestrian but quaffable.

Oct 10, 2006 Updated: Oct 11, 2006Bottle. Pours amber red with a fine creamy head that lingers very nicely. Fruity hop aroma with some notes of caramel. Very british like in texture, on the lighter side. Initial malty flavor of caramel., that then moves into sweet fruity hop bitterness. Orange zest comes out in the finish, along with slight hint of tea. Citrus notes are a bit overdone, but otherwise very enjoyable. I would drink again. This would pair well with food.
