Magic Hat Roxy Rolles

12oz bottle purchased from Clarendon Wines in Boston. Consumed in Feb 08 with an April 08 best before date. Pours a rich copper with decent head. A faint hop aroma that turns maltier as it warms. Flavour is middle-of-the-road with a decent malt backbone along with some hoppiness, though not a lot. Another meh Magic Hat offering.

Pours darkish amber fizzy large tan head which slowly dissipates okay lacing. Smells sweet citrus and malt. Taste is more hops than malt.

Pours a dark amber with a tannish head. Smells of the malts. Hoppy taste with some malts in it. Kinda sweet on the side. Not very complex, but not bad by any stretch of the imagination.

Nice amber color with minimal head. A bit too hyped up for how it ended up. Lightly hoppy flavor, nothing big. A bit disapointing after hearing so much about this beer.

Jan. 2007 - Poured amber color with medium head and okay lacing. Aroma was grapefruits and a citrus that smelled like it was coming from a soapy detergent. The flavor was sweet malts, some caramel and a lot of citrusy zing...maybe a touch of pine. Light and freshing with a nice hop bite. I liked it.

cloudy amber pour Spicy, mouthful of hops very drinkable, although a little harsh on the palate. my favorite magic hat

"See with your heart. Hear with your head." Pours a foggy reddish amber. Oh, man. This nose. Talk about grass. Just a huge pile of freshly cut green grass in it’s prime. At the same time it is spicy, and for the love of me, I can’t pinpoint what precisely it is. As I was pouring it I got a whiff and just had to focus on it for a while. It calms down fairly soon, so get it while the gettin’s good. Flavor is massively earthy and robust. Has a nice leafy tone to it and a firm hop quality to it as well. Stays very consistent throughout. Feel has some good carbonation to it and a liquid feel that is very good as well. Overall this is a good drink. Definitely worth trying, especially to get a whiff of that oh-so-unique nose. Suggested.
