Travilah Wine & Beer, Rockville 750ml ($7): Pours a brownish color with a white head. Aroma is of citrus and resin and a malt backbone. Taste is somewhat bitter, with a good balance struck with the malts. Overall, this is well-balanced and worthy of a drink.

750 mL bottle from Ye Old Spirit Shop in Frederick, MD. Pours a clear amber color with a medium frothy offwhite head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of citrus and resiny hops with some nutty notes. The taste is bitter earthy, citrus hops with caramel and toasted malts. Dry. Fairly well balanced. Medium bodied. Nice.

Beautiful crisp copper coloured body with a slight ruby tint and a nice thin tan head - this is the way an APA should look! Aroma of malt, perfume, light pine and a touch of hops - fairly watery. Medium-bodied; Strong assertive hops up front with a large chewy feel at first then fades to a mild balanced beer with a light finish of floral and piney hops. Aftertaste shows some slight bitterness, but relatively mild for the style and only a touch of sugars at the end. Overall, no bad tastes, no mind-blowing flavours and a relatively boring flavour profile, but well executed and perfectly balanced - there just wasn’t enough character in the ingredients to show beyond the brewing process. Worth a try, since its a rarity, and the price was right, but the large bottle is a bit unyielding. I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from Ye Old Spirit Shop in Frederick, Maryland on 29-July-2010, sampled at home in Washington on 09-September-2010.

Bottled. An amber beer with an off-white head. The aroma has notes of spices, caramel, hops, and grapefruit. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, grapefruit, caramel, and bread, leading to a dry bitter finish.

22 fl oz bottle, courtesy of CaptainCougar. Pours clear and golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is mild grassy and hops fruity aroma. Fruity and subdued sweetness and nice good bitter courter balance to this. Lingering hops fruity flavoured finish.
