| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 7, 2008 Bottle from Sam’s. Odd one. Clear golden orange with nice fluffy off-white head. Surprisingly hoppy, grassy, sweet nose. Sour grain, grass, caramel malt, and crisp bitter finish. Much better than it sounds, though certainly not amazing. swoopjones (1897), Buffalo, New York, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 28, 2008 bottle at Ft Wayne locals tasting - Pours orange with a one finger lingering white head. It has a mild hop aroma. This one tastes much like an IPA to me with heavy hops and just enough malt to keep it from being really overpowering. It has a light to medium body. Good.
