bottle from Kingdom Liquors - may have to re-rate this one later because I brushed my teeth just earlier - I have to disagree with the last writer - this hides the 13% quite well - especially if I compare to the last Scaldis I had. Virtually no head - very sweet - apple on other fruits, vanilla, malts - I really enjoyed this one - to each his own!

8.4oz bottle. Damn that’s a small bottle. Didn’t notice it right away. Pours a dark, translucent copper color with a bunch of bubbles and a rocky white head and very thick lacing. Smells surprisingly light for a 13% beer. Smells like a Heifeweizen. Light fruits, yeast, bananas. Aghhh. Taste is the most boozy beer I’ve ever tried. Complete alcoholic taste. Jesus. There might be some other flavors under the alcohol but none worth mentioning, the alcohol is right there in your face. I can’t think of a beer that hides the alcohol this poorly. Too much man. Too much, too much.

Poured from an 8.4 ounce bottle into a snifter, cloudy yellow with no head. Aroma was of apricot, pear, apple and other fruit. Taste was sweet with a touch of citrus fruits and a big alcohol wallop that dominted all else. Not much reason to drink this except to get a quick buzz.

Pours a murky orange with a small and dense white head. Aromas of dark fruits and alcohol. The alcohol is dominant all the way through, with a trace of dark fruits. Thin mouth feel with a dry finish.

thick, amber color, a bit viscous, citrusy/fruity, kinda tastes like a watered down whiskey, strong bite but not bad for the alcohol %. A three pack is like 4 bucks not bad

Amber color with a nice white head. Malt, fruits, vanilla and alcohol aromas, and palate with malt, yeast, fruits and sweet.

Bottle: Orange body, hazy with white head and nice lacing. Apple spice is present in the aroma, along with the alcohol (duh...). In the mouth, I tasted a mild apple tartness, with some spices. Alcohol bites real hard right before the swallow, and then the beer finishes with a strong apple tartness. Not very complex in my mind, but for a gimick beer, its not bad...
