Oct 23, 2008 Bottle: Pours a booming 3 plus finger head, it just lays there, a beautiful copper amber clear body... as I drink the beer the head just sticks like nobody’s business, I think 1/2 the bottle is stuck to my glass afterwards... LOL... strong caramel sweetened hops with some dirt thrown in, if this is what wet hops smell like, then now I know... like dirty, freshly picked, grassy citrus... anyways, the aromas are unique and fragrant, the flavor is caramalized malts - hops... after some of the froth settles, distinct toffee, some chocolate emerge... it’s muddled but perceptive... I like the special harvest series from SN... though I give a slight edge to the Southern Harvest where the hop aromas are just awesome and crisp! Recommended.

Oct 22, 2008 Bottled: thanks tiki taylor! Pours a golden color with white lacing. Smells of light hops and tastes bitter, but very clean and full of hops, that lasts great on the palate. Good beer!

Oct 21, 2008 12th Release Bottle. This beer pours a amber with a beautiful white head. The aroma is heavily floral pine. The flavor is extremely floral, yet very nice and quite different from other hop showcased beers. The beer’s body is pretty thin/smooth, which makes it go down nice and easy. They really captured the freshness of the hops in this one. Good Good.
