Nov 17, 2009 Pours a hazy copper with a big sustained white head... Aroma of Citrus hops and belgian yeast take the forefront... Fruity esters finish a dry hoppy mildly creamy medium bodied ale.. Silky mouthfeel... One of the better belgian IPA’s i’ve had...

Nov 10, 2009 Pours a cloudy golden amber orange with golden orange hues when held to a light source and a thick, pillowy 2.5 finger white head with excellent retention that slowly settles into a lasting cap that leaves chunky rings of soapy lacing in it’s path.
Spicy hoppy aroma with lots of estery crisp golden fruit notes, especially grape, apple and pear with a subtle malt presence underneath.
Soft carbonation up front with a lightly hopped creamy medium body with some earthy dry pine notes that linger throughout. Sweet estery golden fruit notes from the Belgian yeast. Apple and pear dominate with hints of grape and raisin. Subtle malt backbone provides nice balance. Slight alcohol warmth present throughout yet the ABV is decently masked making it quite quaffable. Very resinous dry pine hop flavor in the finish.

Oct 30, 2009 On tap at the Bavarian Lodge, Lisle, IL. and served in a short stemmed, globe glass, a lightly hazed, orangy hue, with a finger width of off white foam, and clingy, curtainy lacing. The aroma was fresh, light citrus, negligible yeast, just a hint of pine, and mid-toned fruit as apricot and peach. The flavor was a nice blend of the fruit, hop bitterness and smooth malt. Warming alcohol and subtle dryness capped off the experience. An excellent, well balanced brew as a comingling of Belgian and American styles.

Oct 10, 2009 On tap during the annual Boston/Salem/Marble head tour. Sampled at the Sunset grill.
Hazy pour with notes of caramel and yeast. Cany, hoppy and bread taste. A good brew.

Sep 14, 2009 On tap at the maproom. Pours a peach color with a big white dense froth. Aroma is somewhat peachy and quite floral. Flavor is a bit sugary, yeasty, decent bitterness, sweet peach. This was fairly good, just not entirely interesting.

Sep 12, 2009 This corked and caged bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a large sized head of foamy finely sized off-white colored bubbles that were mostly diminishing and left behind a transparent typically carbonated orange colored body and a thick foamy lacing. The mild aroma was orange peel and mild hop. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a mellow hoppy aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of malt hops well hidden vinousness and orange peel. Delicious and one I would certainly buy again.
