Mar 22, 2008 Poured a golden copper color. A medium white head. Orange peel taste with a good dose of sugar. Sweet and malt flavors. A good blend of the flavors. Nose has some spices with citrus. Really decent pick up.

Mar 20, 2008 Poured from a 22oz bottle (Bottled in January 2007) and served in a tulip. This beer poured a hazy, ruddy amber color with a thin, creamy, lasting head. Very nice lacing. The aroma of the beer was made up of caramel, candi sugar, fresh citrus, and also some bread dough. The flavor included grapefruit and spicy citrus, caramel, and also some mild dark fruit in the finish. The mouthfeel was medium to full-bodied with light carbonation. Not a bad drink, but it lacked complexity with the combonation of caramel and citrus dominating the flavor at times.

Mar 18, 2008 On tap@OBrien’s: Dark ice tea amber color with a wisp of off white head in the form of a halo. Smokey caramel sweet and over ripe fruit nose. Flavor starts rich caramel followed by cherry candy and ripe fruit syrup (apricot, peach). Medium body is smooth with moderate carbonation. A little overly sweet for my taste, but a good blend.

Pours a rich golden amber with a creamy beige head. A malty faint belgian yeast character and wheaty, caramel in the nose as well. Taste is creamy, smooth and simple with brown malt and yeast flavors. On the lightly sweeter side. Softly carbonated and medium bodied. Drinkable.

Mar 16, 2008 Slightly cloudy amber in color. Off white 2 inch thick head. Pleasant, mild, malt and hop aroma with a little stone/earthyness to it, and a little clover. Taste starts off sweet, quickly goes to slightly bitter, and sugar comes out a little on the finish. Somewhat of a candy taste, but not too much. Very enjoyable. Could use a little more bite to balance out all that malty sweetness.
