Mar 19, 2008 This beer is a nice, dark red with a decent head. As the drink goes on there’s some nice lacing. I didn’t really know what it meant when people described a beer as "grassy" but one sniff of this and I learned fast. Really fresh and grassy. The taste is grassy as well with a bit of spice. Bitter finish. Not really my thing, but not bad for what it is.

Mar 13, 2008 Pours a nice amber with a little head. Aroma and flavor are of several different kinds of fruit: mostly strawberry and orange. There are also some caramel notes and some flavors which are otherwise unique to ambers. A very interesting combination.

Mar 13, 2008 Bottle from dkachur, thanks! Red amber color. Grapefruit, grassy hops and red berries in the aroma. Firm grassy oily flavor with grapefruit and red berries, flowing into a dry hopbitter aftertaste, with some strawberry fruit. Nice!

Mar 11, 2008 Deep brown. Grapefruit? first scent. Syrupy molasses, fruity. Awesome smelling beer. Nice bitterness to the taste which only accents the aroma. Warming and delightful. Slightly sweet. Very very nice. I am surprised by how much I like this one. I am not a big amber fan. I would venture to say that this is my favorite one.

Mar 11, 2008 12 oz bottle, best by April 08. Clear copper with a quick fading beige head. Citrusy orange hop nose, some pine and bread. Body is the light side of medium, decent drippy lacing. Herbal flavors, caramel, dry grapefruit - nicely hopped up. A decent drinker, and certainly one of the better brews from Magic Hat.

Mar 10, 2008 Poured a dark amber color, with a slight white head. Spicy malt flavor with strong hop notes and kind of warm, almost like a winter warmer.

Mar 9, 2008 Poured large off white head. Decent nose. Dark amber colour. Good flavour, with hoppy bitter aftertase. Carmel notes, malt and spice. What a decent ale should be like. One of the best Magic Hat offerings.
