[1] Review by beerguy101 from Newark, CA, USA who has tried this beer once. (4/30/2008 12:41:25 PM)
"Tasted at the 5th Annual (2008) Triple Rock Firkin Fest. This American Strong Ale poured a medium orange gold color from the cask. Small sized head. Aroma is orange peel, caramel malts and sweet, with a touch of oak. A medium bodied American Strong Ale. The malts are fruity and sweet. The hops are floral and earthy. The oak flavors are fairly pronounced and somewhat tannic. The wood sort of overpowers everything else. There is a nice beer behind all that oak, perhaps it need a little more time to fight through the oak. Nice soft carbonation. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter. "
