Sample at the Columbus Ratebeer gathering at ogglethorp’s 11/20/08: This brew is a mostly clear amber-red color with a thin and rocky light beige head. Spotty lacing. Resiny hops, caramel and malt in the nose. Medium-bodied with moderately bitter hops and grapefruit flavors along with some sweet caramel malt undertones. The finish is hoppy with a lingering bitterness left over. Solid all around.

Sample at the Columbus Ratebeer gathering at ogglethorp’s 11/20/08: Thanks to rogueone for sharing bottle #313! This brew is a hazy translucent orange color with a thick and fizzy off-white head that recedes steadily. Thin rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma is barnyard-esque with notes of citrus and grain. Medium-bodied with flavors of musty malt, yeast and honey roasted nuts. Slight funk in the background throughout. The finish is grainy malt and light hops that linger a bit. Good all around.

lots of berries inthe aroma, a bit articficial, but the berries are probably okay. cloudy red, smalll offwhite head. flavor is a strange mix of alc. beer,and a small amount of berries. the mix, however is quite appaling, it is like apples and bread, don’t store together.
