Served on draft at the brewery. 9/1/10. 400th Virginia rating. Hooray! Pours a clear copper color with a medium sized white frothy head. Fairly faint aroma of herbal hops. The taste is intense herbal hop notes, fairly strong melon and a hint of citrus. Pale malts. Lingering hop burn. Medium bodied. Nice beer.

Tap at the brewery. Dark, little head, but looks thick. Not as thick when drinking, but a decent amount of bitter chocolate, some funky malt, and a hint of licorice. Tasty, but unremarkable.

On tap at the brewery 10/24/10. Pours a brown with not much of a head. Smells of unspiced pumpkin, greens, and malt. Flavor is a funky malt, some bitter vegetable material (I’d assume pumpkin), and that’s about it. Not a great pumpkin ale.
