Hazy amber color; big head; nice lace. The aroma is malty, hoppy and fruity; there is sweet caramel, light mango and light resins; so typical American; very good. Good body strength, strong malt flavor, well sweet, sweet caramel and toffee, and powerful bitterness, with some orange-like fruitness; ligth resin in the final, still sweet. Very good American Strong Ale.

Golden-amber colour and a bubbly head. Explosive piney, citrusy nose with cantaloupe and orange peel. Bright orange taste with a hint of kiwi, florals and grapefruit. There’s a bit of sweetness, but not cloying (maybe a little crystal?). Finishes with more refreshing hops and a slightly sticky malt underpinning.
