12 oz bottle. Tried this beer right after sampling Troegs Nugget Nectar - which was pretty hoppy. This was a nice contrast. Poured an amber orange red body. Very minimal aroma. The taste was pretty good, nice and smooth. Maybe some roasty notes towards the finish.

Aug 8, 2008 Pours a clear, very dark amber color with a moderate, off-white, pillowy head which is mostly diminishing and leaves minimla lace. Nose is fair with caramel, raisin, and faint resins. Flavor is somewhat sweet with some toffee, caramel, faint pine, and light earthy tones. Palate is medium, moderate carbonation, and watery. Finishes a tad drying with lots of toffee, mild citrus and some earth. A decent winter beer with no off-putting characteristics but nothing to make it good.

Jul 18, 2008 Draught @ Adams St. Pub Biddeford.
Terrible bar. Had this at 10 am in a bar full of rednecks competing on a big buck hunter machine. Awesome. The beer was sweet and malty with lots of diactel. body is thin but its the best i’ve had by redhook.

Jul 7, 2008 12oz bottle: Pours a ruby orange with a finger thick head. A nice mix of sugary oranges and unsweetened cocoa meet the nose. This drinks nice and easy, offering a quiet mix of earthy malt, butterscotch and candy. Finishes a bit watery, but other than that, a nice little beer.

Jun 17, 2008 Pours a clear orange-amber colour with a small vanilla like head. Excellent retention. Dotted lacing, a soft nutty aroma with a particular almond scent on the nose. semi-sweet, smooth mouthfeel with a touch of hops in the finish.
