Block (363), West Lafayette, Indiana, USA Apr 24, 2009 Orange pour. Aroma of malts and some hops. Flavor is light but does have a distinct bitterness. Very easy to drink, but that comes with the light amount of hops. FlssmrBrewAlum (1081), Lisle, Illinois, USA Apr 6, 2009 12 oz bottle brought back from the brewery (Milwaukee, WI) from my trip in February. Pours a fiery light copper, just a touch hazed, with small offwhite head that laces a bit. Aromas are muted, consisting of light carmel malts, vague toffee, and small hop florals. Kind of a non factor and a bit vague overall. Initial is a bit light in body, pushing some bready and carmel malts off the bat, hop bitterness is non discriminate with light graininess and toast, moving to carmel and bitterness. Decent, hop bitterness lasts on the palate and aftertaste. Certainly a little underwhelming from the creaminess, but not bad. I’d prefer a Honkers, if that means anything.. BroSpud (586), , Massachusetts, USA Apr 5, 2009 12oz bottle. Part of a mix pack. Not a beer I could recommend. It is overly sweet and something seems way off on the taste. Ended up dumping half of this one out and drank something else to get the taste out. Hopefully the rest of the Lakefront mix pack rates better than this. Rciesla (3515), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Apr 1, 2009 Bottle. Pours an orange amber with a tan head. Nutty with hints of bitter grapefruit and lots of earth. Some floral notes, bread, and malt. Eh. shawnm213 (884), South Bend, Indiana, USA Mar 31, 2009 Bottle from chad. I typically don’t like ESBs or the creamy sweetness that sometimes comes with orgranic beer, but i enjoyed this one. zach8270 (2053), Henrietta, New York, USA Mar 28, 2009 (bottle - 12 oz) Clear gold color with a thin white head. Aroma is sweet malts. Not too much else in it. Flavor begins with sweet malts and some fruits. The middle is malty but turns to bitter quickly and rather bitter at the end. Clings to your palate for a while. Lowe1983 (1029), Fairborn, Ohio, USA Mar 18, 2009 Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Pretty malty aroma with not much else. Flavor is also pretty malty with just a slight hint of some bitterness on the finish. Not very good. nqualls (1429), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Mar 3, 2009 12 oz bottle from Stone’s River Total Bev in Murfreesboro. Infected. That’s about all there is to say. Almost sprayed the ceiling when I opened it. I got one good sip from the whole bottle. I love the Pumpkin beer they make, but the rest of their stuff is so hit and miss with respect to quality that I almost hate to buy anything from them.
