Clear light amber color and a quickly falling off white head start out when this one is poured. Musty malt aroma reminds me of a damp basement. Not really much flavor going on either good or bad, melded with a watery palate make this a forgettable brew.

The commercial description is missing the part about this beer recipe being handed down by Jesus. In any event, it pours with a clear light amber body and a minimal off-white head. Yes, there is actually aroma (can you tell I don’t have high hopes for this one?) of biscuit and toast. OK, the suggestion that this is a "marriage" between an Irish Red Ale and English Pale Ale is apt- the flavor begins with cheerios and light toasty malt, finishing with earthy English hops for a slightly bitter finish. That said, this beer is too timid. A boost in the grain bill and hops additions would improve the body.

GABF 2002: Pale orange, good head. Fresh caramel aroma. Light malt flavor with a very strong bitter finish. Unbalanced.
