3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Sampled on draught at the brewpub in downtown Billings, Montana. Pours a semi-hazy golden amber brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaves behind a white ring. Aroma of orange and citrus zest, light roasted caramel malt, with a touch of honey and orange taffy. Taste is lightly carbonated, medium bodied with a tangy orange/citrus flavor. Finish is slightly smooth, sweet with a lingering orange peel aftertaste that has a lingering mild bitterness.

Draft sample at brewpub.
Poured clear golden color with a large frothy off-white head that was mostly lasting with excellent lacing. Moderate sour citrus hop and earthy malt aroma. Medium body with a sticky texture and soft carbonation. Medium to heavy bittersweet flavor with a medium to heavy bittersweet finish of moderate to long duration.
My expectations where met with a very good complex brew.

Draft at the taphouse: Pours a clear copper color with a large, thick and creamy beige head. Lots of thick lacing. Aroma is heavy in citrus, florals, and light maltiness. Certainly hop oriented, full of citrus and light in the floral hops. A smooth caramel malt base. This is their signature brew and was certainly worth a few pints.

Dark copper color, with citrus and sweet nose. Yes, hoppy up front, yet it seems rather malty. Really taste like there is a touch of honey added. Medium body, nice little hoppy finish.
