Bottle. Pours a clear copper color with a medium beige head with decent lacing. Aroma is a bit faint, with malts and toffee. Flavor is a bit thin, slightly earthy with some caramel and a nutty presence. Thin mouthfeel for this kind of ale. This is not a very bold beer, fairly uninspiring, and it shouldn’t scare off too many people who don’t usually like autumn ales.

pours a clear amber-orange with a medium size light tan head, some lacing.
smell is faint, some caramel, some malt, roasted nuts in the back, a wee bit of lemon.
taste is creamy, caramel, malt, earthy, a little sweet, some spice, a little wood.
overall not much on flavor but drinkable.

On tap at OBF 2008--Deep, amber body with a foamy off-white head. Mildly Belgian. Phenolic, candy-funked nose. Sweet nutty-sugar finish. Grippy, not cloying, but grain-sweetened. Not my favorite, but I was drunk. Rerate: From a bottle (thanks Mario). Poured a deep amber body with a big whitish head. Crisp, clean, nutty, metallic, smooth with some pumpkin pie spiciness. Very nice autumn beer.

I had this one a while back. I wasn’t really impressed with this beer, i thought it was a little weak for an autumnal ale. it pours a bright copper colour with a consistent amount of sweetness in the lightly malted finish as well as the aroma.

12 oz bottle: Coppery red pour with a skimpy head. The nose offers a nice dose of caramalized malt with toffee, buttery bread and a touch of sweet chocolate. While the nose displays the delicate nature of the crystal malts, the body is a bit more astrigent and forced. Scattered notes of sugary malt are jumbled with some alcohol pepper and watery caramel. Drinks easy, but I was hoping for more after the nice olfactory introduction.

Bottle sampled from Capones. pours amber with a small white head. Aroma of caramel, roast, and a mild hop presence. The flavor is slightly sweet caramel, slight roast and mild traces of bitterness in the finish.

Oct. 2007 - Maybe I’m rating a little harsh...there was nothing actually wrong with this beer. Pour was copper, clear and a decent head and actually nice lacing. Very faint aroma of nutty malts. Flavor was weak caramel, some nuttiness and a very mild bitterness. A bit watery, thin and weak all the way around, though. These Redhook beers are just a bit weak and underwhelming.

Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is of slight roasted malts, dark fruits, and slight hop aroma. Flavor is the same and doesn’t linger long. Not really all that good.
