look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
*On tap opening day, 12/8/2012 at the brewery
A - Hazelnut brown body, nice bone white head, pretty solid lace.
S - Caramel, brown sugar, nutmeg, and a nice leafy hop.
T - Roasty malt, dry earthy hop bitterness on the backend that mellows out and becomes charry and has hints of coffee.
M - Sharp light to medium body, smooth going down, and really drinkable.
O - A pretty solid beer for a first offering.

look: 4.25 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
10/31/17 bottling date
A: Medium brown pour with a very tall and very fluffy tan head. Head thins out fast with huge bubbles but still settles down slowly. Spotty chunks of lacing left behind.
S: Smells hoppy. Citrusy and piney. Strong caramel and maple aroma as well. Kinda smells like maple bark.
T: Not quite so hoppy in the flavor. There is a nice citrus up front for sure. But there is a huge amount of caramel and maple sweetening everything up after that. Almost tastes like root beer drums at one point. Light wave of bitterness on the back end, drying it out quite a bit. Hints of pine in there with a bit of a resinous feel leading into the aftertaste.
M: Medium bodied, mouth-coating.
O: Excellent hoppy red. Traditional flavors combined with newer hops. Very good!

look: 4.25 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.75 | overall: 4.25
A: crystal clear; reddish amber in color; a finger light khaki head that receded to a wispy cap; sheets of lace;
S: dank pine with a hint of grapefruit in the background;
T: surprisingly malty considering the aroma; dank up front for a moment, then caramel with a hint of mocha in the finish;
M: medium bodied; moderate carbonation; dry finish;
O: very nice complexity, would have liked more of the hop character from the aroma to come through in the flavor;
