3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 13/20 onceblind (5916) - Denver, Colorado, USA - DEC 27, 2014
Clear brilliant slightly dark Amber with a citrus hoppy bite with a bit of leathery caramel. A little herbal weed-iness hops on the nose. Smooth yet slightly bitter earthy herbal flavor. Wonderful red malts thats balanced and just bitter enough.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 NachlamSie (3031) - Denver, Colorado, USA - JAN 10, 2014
10 oz at the brewery. Heres the first hoppy beer from Cannonball Creek that didnt blow me away. Nose is fairly hoppy but without that massive citrus/pine bouquet their beers have. Its a little biscuity and grassy. Solidly biscuity flavor with a reasonable bitterness. Pretty good balance here and a medium palate. Its solid enough for an amber ale.

On tap at the brewery. Red and clear with a sticky white head. Aroma and flavor of caramel, citrus hops, tropical fruit, pine and toasted malts. Nice bittersweet balance with a medium body and a creamy feel. Pretty fresh. "7.1% - West Coast Style Red Ale"

Tap @ brewery. Pours a touch hazy, reddish orange appearance with a tab head. Caramel, a touch fruity, lightly spicy aroma. Tangerine, little butterscotch, gooey malty, caramel, fairly sweet flavor. Ok but probably my least favorite here so far.
