Bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a thick froathy head. Smells fruity, sweet and some malts present. Tastes fruity sweet, like honey, berries, molasses, raisins, but smooth. Not really my type of beer, but I am new to this genre.

Bottle. Pours a orange amber colour with a light head. Plenty of malt and fruity hops in the aroma. The taste is very citrus, with a hint of spices. The beer finishes with a bitter citrus aftertaste.

Bottle, from Phil l, via Beer Merchants. Thanks Phil! Slightly hazy copper with a nice white head, settling away fairly quickly. Musky sweet melon and peach aroma, a little touch of hay. Flavor plays out along those same lines, with an additional subtle spice note. Flowery sweet, but finishes fairly dry. Very nice.

My friend handed me a bottle of this ale after a very hot and humid day. I had never heard of the beer and was very surprised with the taste, also how refreshing is was. A slightly fruity taste and a unique orange coloring, i would recommend it to anyone.

Bottle from a local supermarket. Was expecting averageness and was blind sided by nice and tasty. Result. Clear gold and due to a wife pour had a huge fluffy white head. Fruity and citrusy (if thats a word, I put Y on the end of everything) Vanilla cream. I thought this was lovely. Very me though.

Sweet honey aroma with a strong aroma of alcohol. Pale golden yellow with no head. Tasted sweet with a strong taste of alcohol and was fizzy.

Bottle from Total wine. This one is pretty nice. Goldish color, nice head. Aroma of wood, vanilla, malt. Flavor is fruity and light. Yeast shines through and has some good tartness. Nice.
