Location: 12 oz bottle from Buy Rite, 11/21/11

Aroma: The nose is a bit hoppy, with some fruity and floral notes to it
Appearance: This one pours a clear golden-orange color with a small white head
Flavor: The taste is medium sweet, and light-medium bitter, with a lingering sweetness
Palate: The body is rather light, it has a crisp and drinkable feel, and a fairly fizzy carbonation
Overall Impression: I can see why they would call this a lawnmower beer. I could certainly picture drinking this one outdoors on a summer afternoon. It would probably make for a tailgate beer too (I guess they should can it!)

Bottle from Half Time. Pours dark amber with a decent foamy beige head. Roast caramel and "nutty" aromas. Med body. Flavor is that roast caramel with dirt typical of a brown ale. There’s some definite bitter behind the malt. So it’s pretty balanced and arguably more bitter than malty. Pretty clean for a brown.

Bottle from Half Time. Pours light amber with a creamy off-white head. Aroma is dusty, mildly spicy, stone fruit. Light stone fruit. Near med body. Flavor is sort of peachy over some caramel that develops into a bit roasty malt. Not strongly flavored, but what there is is nice. Finish is bitter and not exciting.

Bottle from Half Time. Pours gold with a foamy white head. Nice light citrus aroma. Near med body. Flavor is a little breadiness with some fairly nice citric hop. More bitter than expected, and this really works on a hot day. Might be the best lawnmower beer so far.

On tap. Poured a slightly hazy brown with a caramel brown head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma was full of bread notes with a bit of nuttiness and sweet grain backing. Flavor had a bit more nuttiness which joined the bread note that had a bit of sweetness to it.

Tap at Governors Island Brew Fest, summer 2010. Pours amber-red with a medium, off-white head. Nicely balanced all around. Aroma holds some caramel malts and citrusy hops. Flavor begins sweet and malty before giving way to some citrus an earth bitterness. Light to medium in body with average carbonation. Finishes with a nice malt profile and some lingering hops. Nice.

0.33L bottle, a nice touch dense stable head, crystal clear deep brown to burgundy colour, aroma of nuts and coffee with some herbs,flavours of coffee and hay with nuts and herbs in the back, strong but mellow bitterness, long bitter sour aftertaste. Excellent session beer.

Bottle. Beer of the Month club. Reddish brown color with a medium beige head. Aroma of hops, with some citrus, flowers and pine hints, malt, chocolate, cookie and toast notes and some caramel. Flavor starts sweetish with malt, caramel, nuts, some cookie dough and light fruitiness, then turns bitter and hoppy, somewhat earthy, with some grapefruit notes. Medium-bodied. Decent.

At a tasting, thanks Shahar,small stable head, clear light rusty colour, aroma of pine and grapefruit, medium herbal bitterness with some bready nutty malt to balance, and hay, sour bitter aftertaste.
