Light brown color. Mild aroma of plants and malt. Flavor has lightly sweet malt, butter, and green beans, but this is very light. Mild herbal finish. I enjoyed this beer.

Drank at the Newtown Brewfest. A decent brew for the style with plenty of earth, mint, berry, and herb notes. It finishes dry and with a good bit of character.

Bottle. Fairly rich, slick, caramel, bit of a dulling effect, lightly bitter which is appropriate, like a juniper amber ale. Nice juniper aroma, fruity. Seems decently made.

To be fair, I’m sure it’s a very good close recipe to a Sahti. With the herbal sweet tea like taste it seems as if it is need of more bitterness and aroma.

Bottle. Pours deep amber with a small white head. Aroma is sweet, some juniper and a bit of an herbal character, lots of caramel and a touch woody. Flavor starts with tons of caramel and some of that woodiness, sweet and a touch spicy in the finish, a bit bready. Medium body and a sharp carbonation.

Ruby pour on tap with a little bit of foamy head. Aroma is lacking overall. Really unique beer - slight saltiness with a spiciness that opens up with the juniper flavor profile. Definitely worth a taste.

Tallahassee, Fl - on tap at Proof - Pours a sparkling medium copper with an off white head, good sticky lacing. Aroma has a slightly fruit bent to it with some hints of cherries. Flavor is nutty with some muted citrus, some earthy notes, a hint of herbal tea. Thick enough mouthfeel. Decent.

Well, always happy to see these around.. Pours a deep copper .. medium headring .. very light lacing .. . very medicinal, dry twigs, juniper, and earth .. . decent bitterness level .. . nice stuff but nothing i’d ever ever buy again, was also hoping the juniper would come out more .. . . it doesn’t matter how you find the pot of gold b-to-the-ryan, all that matters is that you beat the leprechauns ..

5/17/12. On tap. Clear amber pour with a small khaki head. Interesting aroma of almost pie spices with a certain sweetness. It reminds me of brown sugar on sweet potatoes. More bitter and less satisfying flavor that reminds me of grass or roots. Interesting.
