Lagunitas Sirius Ale

Bottle and served in my Rogue Santa glass: Pours a slightly hazed amber with a small fading frothy head but produced good lace. The aroma has a nice note of piney and grassy hops, grapefruit and apple, clove and pepper, honey and sweeter malt with a hint of earthy yeast. The taste is wonderful balance of resin hops, acidic fruit, bready sweet malt and a dash of white pepper. Stayed on course throughout the tasting providing a clean amped up APA styled brew. The mouth feel is sharp and refreshing and worked very well against the flavor profile with a finish of light alcohol character.
This is a top notch beer and underrated IMO. Get Ya Some!

Clear amber, large creamy head, good lacing and retention. Aroma is aged hops..l I don’t think this bottle was fresh. Lesser notes of grapefruit and citrus. Velvety mouthfeel, it aged well and was enjoyable but rather simple.

Pours a pale yellow-copper, with a big floral hop aroma. Taste is heavy on the hops, floral with some fruit and an earthy flavor that I can’t quite place. Body is a bit more light than I would have expected. Not as extreme as most ASA’s I’ve had. Tasty, worth a look.

I have been rather pleased with the beers I have gotten from this brewer. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy orange-copper color with a small yellow-white head. The aroma is sweet, tangy and fruity. The flavor was sweet and tangy with a ripe fruit element. The fruity hops change to floral hops on the finish. Tasty.

Wow, this beer smells like a florist. This golden beer has almost no head. Very light body with a strong hop/flower bite.

Somewhat hazy-yellow orange pour with a creamy white head. Kind of spicy aroma with some light citrusy hops and some malt. The Flavor has a nice citrusy bitterness with a nice creaminess to it, though it feels like a bit too much booze is coming through. Sturdy body light bittersweetness throughout and finishing with a warming bitter citrus...pretty crisp yet that creaminess throws you off.

An orange beer with a slight haze under a thick off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty with a light touch of hops. The flavor is sweet with a good hop profile and a crisp maltiness.

Mild fruity esters. Good floral hop bouquet, fresh. Mild sweetness of biscuit or some toffee. Neutral fruits. Orange or citrus oils with a bit of resin. Orangish-amber body, slightly hazy, with very thinnest of wispy off-white heads. Not any lacing present. Medium to heavy watery body, not quite oily, but definitely more substance to it than a fortified lager, for example. Mild to medium carbonation. Starts with a nice presence of fresh hops flavor and some biscuity sweetness. A mild carbonic tanginess persists, but it taken over by a nice orangy-fruity character with some resinous hop oils to bitter. Bitterness strengthens as the mild sweetness dissipates, leaving a final after that’s dry but not overly chalky or astringent. This is a pretty good strong ale.
