Apr 23, 2008 bottle pours a dirty caramel colour with littel to no head. aroma is very weak of sweet caramel no hops and an almost dirty smell. flavour is a weak bitter and a sweet malt again a dirty flavour to this not very good at all.

Mar 20, 2008 Pours a cloudy dirty orange with a creamy, off-white head that diminishes fairly quickly to a thin skin. The nose is pretty nice: a big hit of piny and citric hops paired with a bready/biscuity malt note. It smells like a well-hopped APA with an ESB malt bill. Light to medium-bodied and slick with soft carbonation and a moderately bitter and toasty finish. Like the nose, this one tastes like a hybrid of an ESB and a hoppy APA. Those are two styles that I enjoy, and the result is a uniquely tasty and very drinkable beer. I like it.

Feb 18, 2008 Pours a nice hazy amber with a medium tan head and hints of lacing. Lots of malt, caramel and citrus in the aroma. Flavor is similar, but lighter. Good hoppy bitter finish. Not a great IPA, but very drinkable.

Dec 28, 2007 12 oz bottle via Hellbilly (thanks!). Pours a hazy copper woth a small head and not much in the aroma derpartment, just a bit of crystal and some muted orange hops. Taste is not bad, pretty much an English style IPA. Some earthy spicy hoppiness, some apricot and orange follows a bit of biscuitiness. Could use more flavoring/aroma hops. Body is light, mouthfeel thin, carbonation is moderate.
