On tap at Lake Chalet. It pours an orange color with a white head. The aroma is piney and a little flowery with some caramel. The flavor has big floral hops, cooked veggies and light caramel. It has a strong floral bitterness in the finish. Not something I’d try again.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours with ever so slightly hazed copper-orange hued body with a lasting just off-white head. Aromas are bready, malty, caramel, fruity and a bit estery. A spice note (hop?) and some orange. Flavors are a bit husky, medium to slight strong bitterness (very strong for common, and it isn’t just a hop bitterness). Fruity esters, bready, grainy and very tea like. Medium bubbles and quite bland. Creamy with lively bubbles and a decent amount of tannic astringency.

On Draught at the brewpub. Amber looks with a smallish white head. Sweet malts with a hint of citrus in the nose. Clean and straightforward flavour with some hop bitterness evident. Downable stuff, and gazing out on the ocean while drinking this, even if it was a wet december day, all was most well in the world.

Draft. An amber beer with a lazing light tan head. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, toffee, grapefruits, and hops.

From tap at the brewpub. Pours clear and golden orange with a small off white head. Aroma is light roasted and toasted breadish malt. Solid malty flavoured, vague bitterness. Ends dry malty, no remaining sweetness and very low on bitterness.

Reddish amber ale with a thin white head. Sweet malty aroma with note sof cinnamon plus that damned sulfur. Crisp german malts and good hops, giving a smooth restrained bitterness. Medium bodied. On tap at BP, August 2005.
