DJMonarch (4280), Northwich, Cheshire, England Jul 3, 2009 Sampler at the Boulder Beer Company, Boulder 10/10/2007
Very hoppy aroma. Golden coloured strong in alcohol and hoppy with some dryness in a crisp and bitter lasting finish. drseusszb200 (105), Florida, USA Jun 24, 2009 poured golden with a white head that faded to give good lacing. smelled of citrus and pine. gave a pretty good sticky sweet beginning taste but aftertaste faded quickly. taste almost no alcohol for being 10 percent. Monroe1ato (12), Indiana, USA Jun 21, 2009 Good amount of sweet caramel malt and a little bit of spicy floral hops. Hop flavor is very moderate for the style. No alcohol apparent at all. Just a bit of citrus from the hops. Mouthfeel is a little thin, but overall creamy and smooth. Not getting hardly any bitterness. Just enough to hold off some sweetness. While the hops are a little scarce, this is an extremely easy drinking beer. They deserve credit for making such a big beer that doesn’t come off that way. MereLikesBeer (69), Royal Oak, Michigan, USA Jun 13, 2009 So, I haven’t really enjoyed much of what Boulder has to offer thus far...however, this is pretty ok. I would have to say that it is a pretty tasty beer, even though it has a pretty heavy mouthfeel.
I tasted this with BeerBaron617 tonight. It was a suggestion from one of our viewers on our youtube review site. Either way...It poured a hazy light brown/amber with an off white head. It smelled really hoppy...tasted like citrus fruit, but not like oranges or lemons...Sort of syrupy...Heavy mouthfeel. It’s alright. BeerBaron617 (263), Novi, Michigan, USA Jun 13, 2009 This beer is good. Shared the bomber with merelikesbeer. I might be a little too drunk to form an actual opinion. Just get it if you see it. Cheers! Beerman6686 (1107), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 5, 2009 This poured a hazy light orange color with an off white head. Aroma was very piney, and some citrus notes, sweet a bit as well. Flavor was very very sweet with a punch in the face if pineapples and citrus fruity hops. Very oily and resinous hop feel. Good Stuff! jbye4334 (313), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Jun 4, 2009 (bottle from Weber Street Liquor in Colorado Springs). Pours a clear, light copper color. Medium off white head. Crisp hoppy aroma. Hop flavor with light alcohol. Avg duration. Bitter finish. Oily texture. Good lacing. Soft carbonation. jstraw (655), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jun 4, 2009 Orange gold with excellent, foamy beige head / Nose of bread, caramel, and citrus / Medium, soft & creamy body, alcohol well-masked, with good balance and decent finish / Flavors of pine, orange, grapefruit, bread, and caramel / The alcohol is well-masked, and with the soft flavor profile, this beers seems like more of an ipa and lacks the aggressive punch of most doubles. Very good, though.
