Nov 17, 2008 poured an amber colour witha medium head
Aroma is woody herbal hop and caramel malt with a medium alc presence.
Flavour was again herby pine hop, toasty malt tones and a noticable alc throughout that doesn’t totally jive with the herbal hopiness. makes it a tad medicinal at times.

Oct 30, 2008 Pours a clear amber color with a thin white head. Pleasant aroma of hops, caramel and malt. Good flavor of caramel, malt and hops. The body is light to medium with a liquorous texture and gentle carbonation. Quite good.

Oct 27, 2008 Pours a nice amber color with a very rocky white head. Nice lacing. Has a nice hoppy aroma with a little spice. Flavor is balanced between malts, hops, slightly spicy, but there’s a weird taste I can’t really place. Not a terrible beer, but nothing real special.

Oct 25, 2008 Bomber thanks to wasatch. Pours a light golden color with a medium white head. The aroma is very powerful; caramel malts in your face, very aggressive. The flavor was just tons of caramel malts, very sweet and strong. Some light hops attempt to balance it out. Very tasty. Strong and fairly warm, but so good you don’t notice.

Oct 22, 2008 Bottle. Ruby beer with an off-white head. Toasty, malty aroma. Malty, toasty, caramel flavor with grapefruit/pine hops. Medium-plus bodied. Malt lingers with grapefruit/pine and light spiciness. Nice balance.

Oct 14, 2008 Hallertau is definitely a little out of place in this beer, but I do love hallertau. Great finish with some nice chocolate, hops, and malt. Definitely has the distinct trademark ST wheat flavor. Some nice sweetness. Earthy flowery hops.

Oct 14, 2008 Copper body with a nice frothy white head. The aroma is a caramel sweet, subdued floral hops, and a little sweet fruit. Flavor is kind of boring, but not bad. Again some caramel, a little fruitiness, and subdued floral notes. Just bleh, but not offensive.

Oct 14, 2008 Good looking copper pour with thin off-white head. Nice hop aroma, mostly floral and citrus backed up by some a solid malt sweetness and hint of spice, nutmeg maybe. Flavor is made up of slight tropical fruit, spice, sweet malt, with a floral/grassy hop finish. Tasty, but nothing really stands out about this beer. Full, resinous mouthfeel. Another solid Southern Tier brew.
