Oct 28, 2009 Bottle Pours a clear copper with an off white head. Average staying power and laces well. Has a good hoppy aroma, of grass, citrus, and toffee. Has a good carbonation. The flavor is bitter but very crisp and refreshing. Has a medium body. Blended very well. Has a watery texture but its good. Has a strong finish with a good aftertaste. This is a powerful beer if you’re not ready for it. I like it.

Sep 27, 2009 An alright beer. Pours copper color with an off white head that retains well, laces nice. Nice aroma mix of hops and malt. Smooth mouthfeel as the hops and malt seem to compete for which flavor is going to stand out. Somewhat sweet from the malt, good bittering.

The flavor starts with caramel, toffee, and faint fruit. The finish has some mild citrus hops. Medium bodied with soft carbonation and and mouthfeel.

Sep 11, 2009 deep amber pour and lighty carbonated with a tiny white head. kinda smelled like moss or treebark to me and had a bitter hint of hops but was smoothed out by tons of off flavored malts. not entirely bad, pretty average. awesome bottle.

Sep 7, 2009 Pours a four finger light tan head that fades very slowly leaving a good lace. Almost clear red/amber color. Light carbonation and medium bodied. Light piney nose. Flavor is a hoppy burnt sugar with some lingering aftertaste. Unusual dopplebock. $2.25 for a 12oz bottle from Beverage Warehouse Winooski, VT.

Aug 22, 2009 Appears a very nice dark maroon hue with an off white head that laces the entire way down. Carbonation appears light in my SA sensory glass.
Smell is weak, but what is there smells like a light IPA.
Taste is good, weak hop notes over a balancing malt profile.
Mouth is sufficient, medium body with medium carbonation.
Extremely easy to drink, no sense of alcohol content, pretty damn good, but why waste that wonderful name on anything but an IPA?
