hotstuff (3175), Indiana, USA Jun 21, 2008 Bottle. Medium sized off-white head that mostly expired, very little lacing, visible carbonation, mostly transparent and also slightly hazy, and a golden hue. The aroma was malt, caramel, sweet, mildly hoppy, and citrus. The flavor was malt, some caramel, hoppy, citrus, and a dry finish. The mouthfeel was tingly and this was a medium bodied beer. Quaffable brew, easy to drink, and while not a great beer IMO it is worthy of a try. bembelembe (150), Zagreb, Croatia Jun 21, 2008 Bittery and moderately sweet. Hop and herbal taste. Notes of caramel and grapefruit. Medium-high carbonated. Bitter-carbonated and low-sweet aftertaste. Dark orange color. WeeHeavySD (2940), San Diego (Hillcrest), California, USA Jun 21, 2008 Export Bottle bought in providence shared with my brother and my girlfriend Cyn. Pours gold with a 2 finger tan head. Lightly hopped and malty nose. Taste is sweet and bitter, a very bitter amber. Not bad. scotty (828), Scotland Jun 17, 2008 Wee bottle from Tesco. Good mix on the nose, malt & fruit. Clear amber with a thin white head. Well balanced palate, with a noticable citrus acidity. Fairly complex brew, but would be easy enough to drink in quantity though! shoestring (187), larkhall, Scotland Jun 17, 2008 Updated: Aug 26, 2008Nice deep orange colour. Thin head. Thick cookie/caramel/biscuit mouthfeel. I did enjoy it. ’Overpowering’ is too strong a word for the taste, but I could have done with either a pint of it, or another bottle - just to truly get to grips with the complexity of it. daniele (1640), Italy Jun 6, 2008 bel colore rosso ambrato acceso piuttosto limpida schiuma media e persistente note decisamente maltate leggero fruttato in bocca malto poi taglio luppolato ma non astringente anche se molto presente forse non armonica ma intrigante bu11zeye (5430), Frisco, Texas, USA May 30, 2008 (Bottle, Batch 001, BB 01/01/09) Pours a clear amber body with a small off-white head.
