Old Review
12 oz bottle I purchased at the Crimson Tiger bar in Anniston, AL. Poured into a mug.

A: Poured a really interesting milky amber color. I say milky because as it sits there it looks thick and has a white tinge to the color within the amber. Got a somewhat decent half finger of white head that didn't have amazing retention. Receded down to a ring that put up a fight in laces arena, left its mark but it wasn't art.

S: Smell is some lightly roasted malt, yeast, and citrus hops. It is simple but it works. All of the aromas are pleasant and well balanced. Nothing really dominates anything else and I see this as a plus. Pretty nice.

T: Sweet, bready malt is the showstopper here. Not bad. Citrus hops are present but not that far out of the shadows. It does cut the malt a bit and add a more citrus/bitter presence to the sweetness of the malt.

M: Medium bodied brew. Incredibly refreshing. The carbonation is damned near perfect. This is a pretty smooth brew that finishes just a touch dry. The aftertaste is of slight citrus sourness.

D: This beer is nice. This beer is nice but its not blowing me away in any sense of the word. I will drink again if offered but I am not going to go out of my way to track it down.
