On tap @ Erasmus. (Will try the bottled version next time.) Bright, opaque orange color, white, lacy, lasting head. Oranges and aged, bitter hops in the aroma. Slightly sweet orange tang at first sip, then it goes tart, bitter-hoppy and awesomely dry. Finish has some tang but its mostly bitter and long-lasting.

Aug 13, 2008 Bottle - gusher. Hazy/muddy orange body. Off-white, rocky head. Very nice looks. Aroma of orange, grapes, grappa, green apples, yeast, plums, ... Quite complex aroma with an ok balance. Heavily bitter, moderately sweet flavour. Quite excentric flavour with quite a lot of complexity of pure sugars and soft citrus fruits and some melon. Dry mouthfeel (alcoholically and powdery). Balance is not perfect but certainly very nice.

Taste great malty caracter and good refreshing hops; like the bitterness; fruity, citrus.
Dry finish.
Great stuff.
