Bottle fresh from the brewery.
Decants a lightly hazed amber-gold ale with a tight 2 finger white cap, fair retention and lacing. Soft carbonation.
Aromas are distinct but almost subtle...floral-fruityness with a ample malt baked biscuitiness, some musty earthyness.
Big gob-full of malts in the front is instantly balanced by the musty-earthy-herbaceous fuggles, mid palate some demure complexity as the hops go to bittering-herbs and sweetish malts play off against the fruity yeast esters. Finishes moderately with a very slow but not exuberant bittering...lightly sweet malt aftertaste.
If this is "bitter" make all my beers "bitter" like this...I found it to be in perfect balance with a nice fruity-earthy character that is quite unique...but very drinkable...I could session this quite easily...the best specialty brew I have sampled from this brewer.

Bottle. Notes taken on Feb 19th, 2008. A deep and clear copper pour unleashes a medium sized frothy white head. Nose of caramel malts, dark bread crust, cirtic acid,dark fruit. Tastes sweet, of caramel and rye bread, citrus fruits with floral hops. Medium bodied with marked bitter finish. A good offering.
