4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 bud4lyfe (4) - - MAY 4, 2013 does not count

12 ounce bottle. Pours a murky, dark copper with a velvety, thin head of white foam. Aroma is very malt forward with an English hop presence. The hops are more neutral in the aroma. Taste is sort of woody and almost herbal. Kind of makes Mabey think of tree bark. Very sessionable beer.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20 trollcat (11) - Boston, Massachusetts, USA - APR 24, 2013
A solid pale ale with a nice amber color and body. Doesn’t pour a terribly thick head and fit well into a 15 oz glass rather than a pint. It has a strong unique taste partly reminiscent of both grapefruit and hops. A very nice staple of Smuttynose that is delightfully unique from their IPA.

Hazy light amber with a finger-wide white head. Aroma of pine needles, resin, biscuit, and citrus. Flavor has more hay, earth, and pepper notes than the aroma. Hop finish with moderate bitterness.
