| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 1, 2009 Drank at their pub September 27, 2009, on tap at 8.5%. Hazy honey, medium head. Aroma of hops plant sweet and gentle. Taste slightly of hops plant, small notes of sweet berries, bit of bitterness with a little presence of alcohol, which suggests to me they are wrong about the poursantage. It’s vegi but drinkable! presario (2959), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 16, 2009 Sample tray. Gold. Drinkable with moderate hops. Similar to the Pale but with a better body and stronger finish. MartinT (5055), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 9, 2009 My Bottom Line:
This leafy and peppery India Pale Ale offers a little honey and caramel to nearly balance out its brazenly bitter finish.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A thin film of foam tops the clear pale amber.
-The leafy hop nose was a tad dusty, which was bothersome.
-The hop bitterness was earthy as well as peppery.
-Peaches and citrus fruit sometimes appear within.
-This is very drinkable throughout, even though the nose is not terribly appealing.
On tap at the brewpub.
