Hazy deep copper coloured body with a bronze glow and a nice, smallish, one centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of fresh grassy and floral hops, some light sweetness, a good dose of malt and a touch of alcohol. Medium-bodied; Assertive earthy and floral hops at first with a good but slightly mellow malt backbone with a nice earthy pungent caramel and toffee sweetness. Aftertaste shows some complexity from the toasted sugars, but not enough from the hops especially and the malt. Overall, a nice beer, not good or great, but a nice attempt at the style. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Norm’s in Vienna, Virginia on 30-July-2011 sampled at home in Washington on 13-September-2011.

12 ounce bottle from Beer Run in Charlottesville, VA on 3/18/11. Pours a clear copper color with a medium frothy tan head. Fair head retention and lacing. Aroma of earthy and metallic hops notes and a faint bit of toffee. The taste is earthy notes, toffee, bitter hop finish. Medium bodied. Not bad, but kinda blah...

Weak barley malt aroma. Clear dark amber, thin head. Lemon zest flavor with generic grassy bitterness. Mundane but enjoyable.
