A relatively attractive honey red, but lacked a bit in head and virtually no lace. First sip was a bit misleading, I was pleasantly surprised by the refreshing hoppy/floral flavor but furthur down the bottle I realized there was a lot missing. The finish on this pale is rather weak and left little more than an unpleasant bitter lingering on the tongue and palate. My rating of this beer steadily decreased the further I got through the bottle; there just isn’t that much here.

A nice brew with a well-balanced flavor. A fairly unique malt flavor - a nice ale.

Cloudy amber pour with a thin white head. Interesting but simple aroma of resinous hops. Flavor of resinous hops with caramel, there’s some sweetness in the end. Average.

Tap at brewery. Pours cloudy like iced tea. Aroma is tea leaves with Sweet-N-Low. Flavor is malty with a hops finish; very cardboardy. Palate is adequate. Reminds me of the stale smell of an antique shop.

Clear dark orange with offwhite average head. Strong malt, resin, sweet citrus and medicine like aroma.. Full flavored with balance s&b and an ash tasting finish.

12 oz bottle from Bier Stein. Pours a medium brown with a small tan head and not much in the way of lacing. Aroma of yeast, caramel, citrus hops all muddled up together. Flavor hits all the same notes, but it’s hard to discern them from each other. Pretty much a hot mess this beer is.
