Medium body, with a deeper color. This beer was a bit sour. Perhaps it was aged too long.

A dark amber ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, restrained hops, heavier on caramel malt. In mouth, a nice caramel malt with butterscotch, veering on an Irish Red, nutty, German like hops. Interesting. On tap at brewpub, Sept. 12 2009.

Good light hop aroma. The flavor is pretty normal for the style, but as hoppy as I’d expected.

Pours a light amber with a thin head and some lace. Barely any smell, just a hint of citrus and caramel. Taste is mild with some toasted malt and slight bitterness.

Bottle. 5.3%. Clear amber pour, deep copper/red with a weak tan head, little retention. Aroma was nutty, and sweet malts. Taste was very grainy and bland. Not extremely hoppy at all, a lot of malt and grain in the taste, but fairly smooth on the finish. A drinkable ale, but nothing that stands out.

I got more malt and less hops than I would have liked. Orange color with a white head. Aroma of earthy pine tree scent. Flavor is sweet with a dry finish. I guess it is balanced, but I’m not sure that anything stands out about this one.

Sweet nearly nonexistance flavor. Suprised this is favored in comparisonto the nellies. The beer has an almost fruity aroma the almost any aroma I could find. The flavor isn’t much stronger. Leaves a lot to be desired
