3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 hopscotch (10228) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - AUG 1, 2005
Draft... Deep, clear amber ale with a small white head. The floral, malty nose is full of caramel, butter and toffee. Balanced by just the right amount of hops to keep it clean and not cloyingly sweet. Medium-bodied and creamy with fizzy carbonation. Finishes a touch sweet and a touch dry. A great "session beer" that doesnt taste like a "session beer." Great stuff!

Draft at Hoppers in Tampa, FL. A small sized ivory head that was creamy and smooth with fine sized bubbles that were mostly diminishing with a yellow-gold hue. The nose was malty as was the flavor. The mouthfeel was smooth and this was a medium bodied beer with good lacing on the sides of my glass.

TheDM and Hotstuff vacation brew 96. This draft brew was sampled at the East Lake Road Hoppers Tampa Florida. This brew poured a large head of foamy off-white colored long lasting bubbles that left behind a good lace and a carbonated transparent brown colored body. The aroma was of a medium strength red malt hop variety and the mouthfeel was tingly and very nice and smooth. It had a caramel malt flavor.
