Jan 7, 2009 Bomber. Pours burnt orange with a huge, creamy head. Aroma heavy on hops, citrus, orange peel, flowers, and candy sugar. Palate is nice and prickly, with a long finish. Flavor is satisfyingly bold, with a nice array of grapefruit, kumquat, and lemon. Very refreshing, and well brewed.

Dec 28, 2008 Bottle from easy E! Poured aggresive....big head. Orange in color. Grassy aroma. Taste is kind of complex. Toasty, fruity, little spices, still grasy hops. Average texture and carbonation. Nice beer. Thanks Spark!

Dec 24, 2008 Bottle at Holiday Alesmith tasting. Sweet nose. Nice strong amber color with a light fluffy head. As the beer settled the head became thick and creamy. Taste was malty and sweet. Hints of pineapple came out.

Dec 4, 2008 Clear orange-red pour with a thin white head. Lots of carbonation and nice lacing on the glass. Tropical fruity aroma - mango, pineapple. I had this on draft a the brewery. Not quite as good as the sample I had there. Similar flavor...Tropical fruits with roasty malt backbone. Dry and fruity. Smooth and easy to drink. Some hops to finish. Good session beer.

Nov 27, 2008 Tasting at Brewtopia festival. Amber/copper pour wtih a fluffy head. Some good lacing with this one. Aroma is malty with hints of caramel leading way to some floral hops. Flavorwise this was one of my least favorite Alesmith productions to date...but it is still pretty good. Flavor has some caramel, toffe, and floral hops.

Nov 26, 2008 This poured a copper-brown with a fat tan head and very rich lacing. The mouthfeel is very rich and slick, and it goes down very smoothly. Nose is of malts and some pine hops. Very well balanced brew. Flavor is not complex but enjoyable. The most remarkable thing about this beer is how drinkable it is. It gets even better as it warms up. Don’t drink this one too cold.
