radiomgb (1776), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Jan 30, 2008 Murky amber in colour, thin white coloured head, thin to light lacing. The aroma is floral, piney, mildly sweet, some bread. The flavour is nicely hopped, floral. pine, cedar, lightly sweet, some caramel. Bitter mouthfeel, medium body, medium carbonation. Finishes mid length, lightly bitter turning sweet. Not a bad pale ale, quite floral, not entirely balanced.

Rcr84 (33), Canada Sep 30, 2008 Deep Orange colour with a thin head. Beautiful piney hops aroma, I believe west coast hops. Well balanced bitterness with plenty of hops. One of my favourites around right now. Beershine (1440), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Sep 24, 2008 Gorgeous bright blood orange color. Hazy with huge, creamy head. Bright and earthy aromas with loads of raspberry, custard apple, and mushrooms too. Generously carbonated. Big body with loads of roasty flavors in the aftertaste, preceded by intense woodsiness. Hops here are intense, healthy, and earthy in character but not encumbered by chewiness. Very nice if not a touch on the intense side. KeithP (2), Canada does not count Aug 16, 2008 Pours a reddish brown body with a robust off-white head that lasts and lasts. Aroma is pungent hops, a bit of citrus, but mostly hops. Taste is hoppy, very bitter and powerful. A killer beer, that overwhelms the palate. Not to my taste as I prefer more balance. MrManning (1448), London, Ontario, Canada Apr 22, 2008 Bottle- Pours a deep orange with hues of amber. Head is one finger froth of off white foam. Nose is pine needles, orange peel, juniper, candied apricots. The flavour profile is a blast of piney hops upfront, followed by orange peel sweetness, grapefruit, dried apricots again. Chewy, heavy, oily finish. I liked this one! Another winner from these guys. DougShoemaker (2613), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Apr 3, 2008 Aroma of the west coast hops, citrus, pine, a fine underlying malt, sunset orange, small tan head. Fine hoppy taste start, malt is well played too. Well balanced, pleasingly bitter. Very good example. Thank You jerc.
