Oct 22, 2007 Bottle. Nice light, brown body with a bit of a reddish tone to it. Head starts at a little better than one finger and dies down with a little bit of lacing and a film across the surface. Aromas are of sweet malt and bitter (and slightly astringent) alcohol with a touch of some hops. Flavor is definitely on the bitter side, and there is that astringent quality that showed itself in the nose. Things end with a sweet malt aftertaste with just a little remnant of the hops presence sticking around. Ho hum...

Oct 4, 2007 Pours lightly cloudy and amber with a thin, mostly receding off-white head. Aroma of medicinal phenols, sticky caramel, cherry, and pine. Taste is phenolic, medicinal, cherry, light sourness. Mouthfeel is medium to full bodied, sticky sweet with lush carbonation. Cloying and medicinal, down the drain...

Sep 17, 2007 Bottle Hazy amber pour with off white small head, quick dying. Aroma of a mix of earthy hops and malt. Bitter sweet flavor with some earthy notes. Flavor is a bit off. Not too bad, but not great.

clear amber, thin off white head, light floral hop aroma, sweet carmel malt flavor, light bittering hops still lets the sweetness come through, picks up at the end and becomes a nice sweet esb, would make a good evening session beer

Aug 31, 2007 Picked up a single bottle from Cellar’s Wine & Spirits in St Paul, MN. Pours dark orange amber brew with a thin white head that quickly dissolves to a white ring. Minimal lacing. Aroma of caramel malt, some citrusy hops with scents of light apple and pears. Taste is medium bodied, well carbonated with flavors of caramel malt, sweet fruit and a touch of citrus zest. Finish is slightly dry with a caramel citrus aftertaste.
