May 8, 2008 Clear chestnut color with a decent bit of lacing. Sweet buttery D-licious aroma makes me think of candycorn. Taste is sweet with a grainy, astringent taste that finishes in a weird metallic acidy aftertaste.

May 5, 2008 Bottle pours a reddish copper color with a foamy tan head. Nice lacing around the glass. Aroma is mostly malty and sweet with some hints of fruit. Reminds me almost of a fruit juice mix of grape and appple with malts added. Flavor is interesting, light, and crisp. Some hop bitterness and spiciness with lively carbonation. I would have liked more bitterness in the aftertaste though. Definitely not bad for an organic beer.

May 1, 2008 The body is a not too dark. Kind of a golden brown body topped off with very little head. The aroma is pretty malty with a bit of a grape like aroma mixed in. The flavor is also pretty unspectacular with just a bit of malt and very little bittering hops. there is a bit of a grassy flavor as well with a hint of something sweet, maybe grapes again.

May 1, 2008 Coppery brown pour. Nose is caramel malt, brown sugar, some tannins, some hops. Tastes malty with backup hops, some mid-palate tannins, nuts, and figgy fruit, with a meedium palate heft.

Apr 30, 2008 Will re-rate if I can find a good bottle. This beer was in a bottle that had been on the shelf for at least a year. The bottle was coated with a sticky dusty layer of crud and I should have followed my instincts and left it in the store. But U.S. beers outside of the Northwest are hard to find. I really like ESBs and this one poured with no life, opaque appearance, and unpleasant smell. I took about three tastes and decided it had gone bad sitting on the shelf. So until I can find a newer example it rates a total of 1.1.

Apr 19, 2008 On tap at the brewery. Pours a clear brown with a foamy tanned head. Malty with hints of caramel. Mildly flavoured. Low carbonation. Bitter finish.

Apr 19, 2008 For a bitter, a surprisingly soft beer, with very mild hop characteristics. To a fault, really. It lacks the punch of top bitters.
Optigon (561), Bloomington, Indiana, USA
Apr 18, 2008 Pours deep brown, caramel malty flavor. Mild hoppiness. Nothing all crazy, but definitely a decent beer.
