Dark golden ale with an extra big resilient off white head. Aroma was herbal, grassy hops with light malt. In mouth, grassy malt with peppery hops, and a decent body. Not too bad considering I forgot this one for one year. Thanks Degarth.

The overall impression of this brew is that it’s too malty. Sure, there are hops present, but they’re overcome and covered up by malts upon malts.

#300!!! Thanks to Matta for sending this one! This was a good trade! This Pale is a winner that starts off with a big creamy head riding on a beautiful burnished copper beer. Grapefruit hops balanced with a light malt in the aroma which is clean and refreshing and sets you up for the taste which is well balanced. It finishes with a slight bitterness that is just right. Balance is the word for this beer. Matt has chosen a good one to keep on hand in his ’fridge. And look Pippin, it comes in pints!
