4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Thank God this is available again. Cloudy amber appearance with strong citrus aroma.
Heavy on the palate with powerful citrus flavor and a fresh mouth feel that makes you want to drink a lot of it! In the past I have only had this in the bottle but It was one of the featured brews at our local Oktoberfest so I experienced it on tap this year. One of the very best IPA’s I have ever had.
4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Rated it under the wrong one way back in 2007 as I remembered this label. Excited to go try the Experimental version in the store now!
Creamy and hoppy aroma. The flavor has a great hop bite. Really sustains with a nice hoppy flavor. My kind of beer.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
On tap. A great orange color with a white head and lots of lacing. A great fruit nose, with orange peel and lemon and a bit of pine. The flavor has strong, almost sweet hops up front, with a slightly syrupy mouthfeel and bittersweet aftertaste.

3.9 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Smells like oranges and apricot nuances. Pours a bright golden orange with a slight opaqueness. Slight foam head with nice carbonation. Taste is punch in the mouth strong. Hops are very bitter with fruit of the aroma coming in at the end. Hops have nice balance with the malt and slight booziness.

From a bomber. Pours light orange with nice white head. Heavy pine and caramel aroma. Nice orange pine hop flavor up backed with a sweet malt backbone. I like it a lot. After trying some other deschutes offerings that I thought were just ok, this was a pleasant surprise.

Pours a hazy slightly orange auburn. Very nice, dense offwhite head with real staying power. Aroma is very carmelish and lots of piney hops. Sweet malt flavors, but subdued. Quite strong bittering with grapefruit pith notes. Full heavy mouth feel and long, bitter aftertaste

Clear orangey amber hue. Spicy orange aroma. Fruity hop sweetness and spice on the palate, lightly breast, mild grapefruit on the finish.

4.7 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
AMAZING aroma, crazy hops. First it hits you as floral and citrus-y, but then it reveals itself to have tremendous complexity and an IPA bitter finish. Keeps you guessing with every sip. Kind of love this beer.
