Modest red, noticeable in its Cascade-fueled finish but otherwise a malt sweetheart. Toffee with a little apple-apricot fruitiness, slipping into a firm bitter fade. Surprisingly decent.

Sampled on draft at the brewpub this beer poured a red-caramel color with a large creamy orange-tan head that lingered and left incredible lacing. The aroma was toasted caramel, biscuit, and faint herbal hops. The flavor was tangy and malty caramel, faint dark fruits and tobacco. Medium length tangy caramel and tobacco finish. Medium body. Decent.

Draft @ Big River Grille in the Disney Boardwalk. Pours amber color with light tan head. Aromas of citrus hops and caramel malts. Sweet caramel malt flavor with graprefruit hops. Medium body with average carbonation. My favorite of their beers I’ve tried.

Tried on tap at the Florida Brew Fest 2011 addition. It pours deep copper – amber with thin mocha head. The aroma is a modest level of bitter pine hops, caramel malts and a bit of caramel kettlization caramel like candy. The taste starts off on the thin side but likely pretty good for a Pale Ale offering up caramel malts, crystal malts and modest levels of pine hop flavor and bitterness. The malts fade while the hops remain pretty consistent in strength right into the finish.

Au fût @ Big River Epcot, Floride. De couleur cuivre, mousse est fine beige. Arôme malt, léger caramel avec fine touche de houblon. Palais, note de malt cristal avec un palais qui tend à rester sur l’amertume du houblon. Qcq notes de caramel qui reste doux au palais.Une des meilleures de Big River Orlando, et c’est pas très glorifiant. Même pour une ambre, la bière conserve une approche bien houblonnée.
