3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Tap @ New Hope. Deep amber colour without much head and not a whole lot of visible carbonation. Nose had fruit and malts. Taste is sweet up front, light raisins and then finishes with a decent hop hit. This reminded me of Troegs HopBack that had gotten a haircut. Not as full bodied, but trimmed down. Would have liked it more robust, but still was very nice.

Draft at Princton location. Nice citrus hoppy nose. Caramel flavor balanced by fruity hoppiness. Bitter finish without being aggressive. Very solid example of the style.

UPDATED: APR 21, 2007 Re:rate Princeton Location. Aroma is of fresh PNW hops, sticky pine and citrus- aroma is not very strong, just right for the style. Taste is also fresh citrus and pine hops, lightly resiny and balances perfectly with the malt backbone of this beer. usually ambers are very ordinary, but this was really well done.
4 oz. taster at New Hope, PA location. Pours amber with a long lasting, off white head, aroma is of slight citrus, and sweet caramel/malt, taste is slightly sweet caramel, quickly changes to a slightly bitter finish.
