Deep orange with a thick and frothy head has a strong, floral aroma like potpourri.
Actual flavor has a tremendously nutty and bitter quality, reminiscent of toasted walnuts, highlighted by a syrupy orange finish.
A perfect sipping beer on a cold, rainy afternoon!

’NUFF SAID.
Perfect.

Aug 14, 2008 The perfect beer. Never before has there been such a great balance of hops and malt. Neither dominate and the 10% ABV stays in the background making this the most sessionable non-session beer ever. Well done guys.

Aug 13, 2008 [1546-20080723] Bottle. Fresh juicy sweet navel orange peel aroma with a great hint of pine hops, reminds me of a bed of evergreen needles. Hazy, orange amber body with a long-lasting creamy off-white head. Full orange grainy hops flavour has notes of pine resin and bitter seeds, a boozy sweat finish and a long hoppy aftertaste. Medium-full body is boozy. In perfect shape, extremely enjoyable.

Aug 13, 2008 I love Hopslam! Golden orange in color, cloudy, nose of citrus goodness (orange). Lots of citrus and resin. Bitter, hides the alcohol. Very smooth and easy drinkin’ for such a huge hop beast.

Aug 11, 2008 pours orange with a small, white head with good lacing and alcohol legs. the aroma is of hops, citrus (orange) with a strong caramel backbone. has a very malty flavor of caramel, hops and orange/lemon with an orange peel finish. bitter throughout. overall its a very enjoyable, well balanced beer, although a little on the bitter side.
