bottle - Pours amber with a moderate head. Some lightly roasted malts and the hops make for a nice aroma. The flavor is well balanced with a dry, hoppy finish and the palate is medium bodied. It’s not bad at all. It’s a good session brew, though be aware that the flavor is a bit different for the classification of American pale ale. I thought it tasted much more like an ESB than a typical APA.

Pours murky orange with a tall dense head of off-white. Spicy citrus & yeast aroma. The flavor has an acidic fruit tartness that is well supported by a malt sweetness. There is a touch of dryness that fully develops in the finish. Not quite as complex as some of the true Belgians, but this was tasty. Thanks to Dough77 for this.

Thanks to Dough77 for ths. Reddish-hued, medium-brown body that makes a small, but persistent, creamy tan head of tight bubbles. Sweet, fruity, complex aroma. Fresh yeast. Smoothly delivered flavor that follows the aroma. Just enough bittering in the finish to balance the sweetness. Not bad.

Pour is a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma is hops and malts with some corriander in there. Flavor is wonderful. Full hops with some rich malts and the right amount of spices. Leaves a sour lemon and clove taste on the tounge as the liquid goes down. Very tasty and a rewarding beer experience. Goose Island is making some really great brew.

Pour is a hazy amber with a nice sized white head. Aroma is excellent, lots of candy sugar and spices. Flavor is very fruity and spicey. Maybe a touch of cinnamon that reminds me of a pumpkin beer. As i drink more i get some clove and pepper. Overall this is a wonderful beer expierience. A very tasty brew from goose island.

Reddish copper to brown ale with a thick creamy light moka head. Aroma is of sweet bruned caramel with fairly strong nuts, chocolate,and honey. In mouth, a nice sweet malt with herbal hops, sweet nutella, with chocolate finish. Medium bodied. Trade with Piscator, merci!

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours black and opaque with a pretty much absent head. Distinct aromas of oak and bourbon. Rather full-bodied with plenty of sweet, roasted malt. All the burned malty accents are pretty much hidden underneath the sweetish bourbon notes. Lightly bitter malt finish. 030606
