Bottle... Hazy orange ale with a mid-sized, frothy, white head. Tropical and citrus fruit nose with lots of floral, perfumey, Mandarin orange notes. The flavor is also perfumey... and violently bitter. Train wreck of hops. Medium-bodied and astringent as hell with lively carbonation. Lengthy, tannic, harshly bitter finish. boboski was responsible for this one... lol... thanks dude!

Tastes of grapefruits (stronger in the taste than the smell), oranges, caramel, and some pine. Medium bitter with a light sweetness to it.
