Jul 14, 2008 Tap at Barcade: Hazy, deep orange pour with a creamy off-white head. Earthy hop aroma. Some citrus qualities come through along with caramel and a biscuit character. Slightly fizzy feel. Flavor is a twiggy/earthy hop character along with candied citrus fruits. Has a biscuity back and a long earthy/spicy hoppy finish. A satisfying and earthy Pale Ale.

Jul 5, 2008 Growler into Sam Adams Lager glass. Pours opaque cloudy orange with a big, rocky off-white head. Aroma is biscuity malt and citrus hops, hint of pine. Taste is sweet citrus and caramel malt on the front, with a prickly earthy, piney hop character emerging on the back of the tongue, and soft lingering bitterness on the finish that coats the throat, along with a hint of biscuity malt. Mouthfeel is creamy, with a subdued carbonation. Like their IPA, the malt never really emerges from the hops -- it comes out a bit underneath, but never really establishes a presence independent of the hoppy character. Good beer - interesting, and very drinkable.

May 4, 2008 TAP NY 08. Hazy light orange in color. Aroma: a good deal of fresh resinous PNW hops- citrus and flowers with some light malty sweetness in the background. Taste is pretty easy drinking, with fresh resinous hops, a good deal of citrus, medium bodied with some light caramel sweetness in the background and a touch of yeast. Finishes with a moderate bitterness.
Nicely done.
