    Deep malt nose, slightly roasted, carmel, prunes, vanilla. Dark clear copper body with a decent offwhite head that has good retention and minimal lace. Mouth is a bit slick, foamy, not quite chewy but close. Flavor is deep, a bit of astringency in mid taste with a sweet but clean finish.I taste some banana, dark ripe fruit, a hint of pepper and maybe a touch clove-like. Alcohol is present. Lots of malty goodness here, with very minimal hops just to balance. Sweeter than most APA's but pretty darn tasty! Reminiscent of lagunitas Brown Sugga.

    Pours a copeery orange with a large head. Aroma is sweet, hints of fruit. First sip is delicous....I should say I've been looking forward to the end of work and trying this all afternoon. Tastes almost of root beer if that makes. This contributes a sweet aftertaste, also very hoppy. Allin all I'm a big fan of this beer and I would buy it if I saw it and I reccommened it.

    The first ot two different growlers to sample from the brewery. Pours a somewhat cloudy, brown-amber body. Nice thick off-white head. Aroma is sweet with a sugary maltiness to it. Sweet with a pretty nice hoppy taste with small amounts of malt too. A little sour aftertaste and there is just something missing from the mouthfeel. Nonetheless, a very enjoyable beer and I would definitely get it again.

    Best beer I had last night. Nice copper color. Well balanced with malt and hops. Very good pale ale. On tap. Caramel notes. Enjoyable.

    Deep amber color with a thin head and good lace. Slightly sweet hoppy aroma and flavor with a slight citrusy fuitiness. Slightly dry and medium bodied.

    While this is by no means the best beer from the Berkshire Brewery, it is the only one of the 2 listed that I have had and since I am from the area originally, I felt compelled to rate it. Overall it is very good, and if you have the opportunity to try any of the other beers from Berkshire, I highly recommend you do so.
