3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20

2.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
UPDATED: DEC 6, 2005 Copper color, off-white head, nice lacing. Nose of light citrusy toasted malts and lightly vegetal hops; dms notes. The flavor is light and mellow, a bit tart and acidic. Lots of bitterness in the tail. Unbalanced, watery, decent nose though.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Caramel malts, bread and floral hops on the nose. A hint of citrus. Nose is not overly assertive. Pours orange golden witha decent head. Lightly sweet, caramel and toast with floral hops in the back end. A little too heavy feeling for style imo. Subdued but well made.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Draft at the Mill Creek brewpub. Hazy-to-cloudy golden blonde under no head or lace. Vacant nose, watery, flat, shy, timid. Light sticky cereal sugar on the mid-palate, no finish. Barely a beer.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Medium copper color, slightly cloudy. Medium head. Aroma is floral hops and a touch of malts. A medium bodied pale ale. Malts are nutty and slightly sweet. Hops are grapefruity and floral. Nicely balanced. Sweet, but with a nice hop bite. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Finish is slightly bitter with a touch of floral hops.
