Tap at brewpub. Dark orange with a modest beige head. Mild aroma, in fact not much of an aroma at all. Kind of sweet taste, but nothing difinitive. Toffee, nuts, roast, florals. No lager maltiness in this badboy; it’s an ale.

Tap at brewpub. Soft orange color with a finger of white head. Sweet and fruity, mostly tropical fruit notes. Tastes soft and sweet with more fruitiness. Almost geting an apricot sense to it. Nice hop freshness, no real bitters to speak of. Aroma was solid, but it didn’t quite follow through on taste.

Tap at brewpub. Brownish amber pour with a nice sandy head. Nose is roasty, but not real intense. Some light nuts. Lots more roasty notes in the taste with a real mild hop presence. Just the faintest of florals.

On tap at Salmon River Brewery. Pours out a hazy light amber topped with a white head. Aroma was of fresh citrus hops and a nice rich malt. Tast was more of the malt and a nice lemon citrus hop.

Tap at the brewery: Dark brown pour with a smaller tan head. Aroma is roasty and light coffee. Flavor is full of roast and light choco notes. Can you say dry, and yes I mean dry for a ’dry stout?’ The second helping, from the bottom of the keg I was told, had a more balanced and wetter feel. More hops and less overwhelming in the roasty dept. Good.

Tap at the brewery: Light orange/copper pour with a small beige head. Aroma is faint, but fruity and sweet. Flavor is a nice blend of citrus, tropical fruits, malt, and light florals. Well balanced and smooth with a good medley of flavors. My favorite of the day.

Tap at the brewery: Light haze in a deep copper pour with a sandy head. Good lacing in the sample size glass. Aroma is more floral than anything, but not huge in intensity. Tastes very floral, dry, and bitter. Dry hopped, and lots of it. Lacking any sweet citrus or malty elements. Overtly bitter and needing refinement. Updated 3/14/09 on new batch: A change in yeast yields a softer, fruiter, and sweeter feel along with a nice citrus hopping. Much more balanced and cohesive. Lightly bitter tail.
