ultraspank (856), Dublin, Ohio, USA Jan 9, 2003 Reminiscent of Sam Smith’s Pale but better. Awesome nose of big malt and fruit. The brew pours a clooudy medium honey amber. The collossal off white dense and fully lasting creamy head has outstanding lacing that sits on the side of my pint glass in huge chunky sheets. The flavor has outstanding balance and depth. This is what it’s all about for me. Starting malty, the brew has a moderately acidic middle and a long finish that is sweet, warm, bitter and spicy. The medium creamy body is soft and finishes dry. I can find no faults, this is a masterpiece. The only thing better would be a big plate of fish and chips between bottles. MammothMan (8), Dallas, Texas, USA does not count Sep 19, 2005 Do you also have that beer that does not rank in the top percentile, but has entranced you nonetheless? This is mine. Dry, hoppy, with spice and juniper to create a beer unlike any I’ve been able to find. Indelible. ChrisBeest (43), Corvallis, Oregon, USA Feb 18, 2002 If the label is correct, this is the best tasting pissed on snow I’ve ever had. I thought the beer was very tasty and smooth ttboy8099 (73), Corvallis, Oregon, USA Feb 7, 2002 My favorite rogue ale. Great taste and great label. baseballguy (246), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA Feb 15, 2002 Love the color, love the flavor (love juniper, love gin), love the marketing concept.
