Oct 15, 2008 Bottle from Sun Devil in Mesa, AZ. Slightly hazy amber color with a good beige head. Good retention. Floral hop over slightly roasted caramel for aroma. Medium body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is somewhat roasted caramel with floral aspects to balance. Perhaps a bit of light stone fruit as well. Think they nailed the style, though it’s a bit rough.

Oct 12, 2008 Very hoppy aroma. Slightly dry taste. Similar to an IPA. Poured a clear amber with a two finger tan head. Aroma of sweet malt and earthy hops. Flavor reflects the aroma. Medium body with good carbonation and an almost creamy mouthfeel.

Oct 12, 2008 This should be called Sawdust ale as it has that rather pine wood tinge happening in the flavor. Texture isn’t bad with a slightly hoppy dry finish to end things on a decent note.

Oct 6, 2008 From 12 oz. bottle into unchilled pint glass at Vortex Midtown. Beer pours a moderate copper colour with moderate white fluffy crown, 1-finger worth on a very timid unaggressive pour. Aroma is full of sweet malt and grassy/earthy hops, nothing too fancy but impressive when compared to other American ales. Strong malt backbone all the way through the taste, with a hop profile that starts strong and bitter and remains all the way through the full taste to the end, causing a crisp finish but just a little bitter. Medium-bodied with spritely carbonation in the beginning that helps leave the hop aroma lingering in the mouth afterwards. More like a malty pale ale than a hoppy ESB, but very decent if this is supposed to be the flagship beer. Would love to taste it on draught.
