Tallahassee, Fl - on tap at Proof Brewing Company. Medium copper pour, off-white head with nice lacing. Slightly funky aroma with some toe jam notes. Flavor has some white grape accents, an odd unidentified spice, some juicy nectarine accents and just a touch of bitter citrus. Thickish, rich mouthfeel. Different, but pretty solid.

Pours a slightly hazy golden orange on tap with frothy off-white head that dissipates to leave great lacing. Aroma of the hops, sweet citrus and slight pine. Taste follows with a tad of pale malt back and bitter sweet finish. Decent, but not the best hop for single hopping.

Aroma brings juicy hop sweet hop notes. Flavors are sweet and juicy citrus hops as well on a bigger than expected juicy body. Wow!

Draft. Poured a clear copper color with an average frothy off-white head that mostly lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate earthy hop and small malt aroma. Medium body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Medium to heavy bittersweet flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate duration. Solid beer.

Draft to taster at Cigar City. Looks solid; burnt-orange with foamy off-white head that dissipates into lacing. Smells solid too; bitter hops and semi-sweet malt. Tastes like it smells with an average mouthfeel. A decent example of the style.
