COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A wickedly tasty red ale packed with a massive hop flavor and full aroma from dry-hopping with whole flowers. Specially brewed with all European malts and West Coast whole flower hops. The result - a rich ruby red color, lacy collar and a feast of hop aroma!

Ungstrup (24024) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - MAY 6, 2006
A hazy orange beer with no head. The aroma is sweet and dominated by notes of grass and hops - and so is the flavor, leading to a very dry end.

Papsoe (23023) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - MAR 17, 2006
(Bottle 35,5 cl) Comes as "Legacy Hedonism Ale". Pours a clear amber with a small, creamy head. Hoppy, aromatic nose. Medium body with plenty of caramel and quite some residual sweetness. Lots of flowery hops on my palate. Very clean and lovely. Thanks to xproudfoot for this one. 150306

fiulijn (10421) - Como, ITALY - MAR 15, 2006
Beautiful copper color. Strong aroma, malty, hoppy, fruity. The body is not enough structured, but it has a very strong bitterness, resiny, and long. Pleasant.

bhensonb (7598) - Woodland, California, USA - MAR 15, 2009
Bottle from Vintage Cellar. Dark copper color with not much head. Smells like an ESB fruity/floral over slightly roasted caramel. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is fruit hoppy. It finishes decently bitter. It’s a very pleasing ale.

hopscotch (7542) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - APR 9, 2006
Bottle... Barely hazy, orange ale with a small, creamy, khaki head. Amazing retention. Perfumey, piney, citrusy aroma. Smells like a slice of pink grapefruit lying on a bed of pine needles. The flavor is not complex. A straight forward, bitter, citrusy experience. Tastes like I just bit into an unsliced, pink grapefruit. Moderately to heavily bitter. Medium to full-bodied with a lightly creamy mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Lengthy, bitter finish.
