On tap @ Magnolia poured a clear amber with a lasting light amber head. Aromas of carmel, citrus and light pine. Flavors of grapefruit, carmel, light piune and a hint of earthinbess with a smooth moderatly bitter finish.

Tap @ Magnolia for Strong Ale Month 2008. Poured a slightly hazed amber color with an off-white head. Big grapefruit aroma with some other pine and earthy hops notes mixed in. There was a hint of butterscotch sadly though. Nice hop flavor that covers the malt. Citrus finish but again some light butterscotch. Medium-full body.

Tried on tap at Magnolia pub during strong ale month. Great pub/restaurant. Great another 10%+ rating. Amber color. Medium head. Nice mild hoppy aroma. Melanoidins abound. Creamy soft head. Sweet malty. Some feet in the aroma (tap lines?).

Draft. Amber beer with an off-white head. Nice big citrus aroma. Big grapefruit flavor with some pine and backing caramel. Long lasting grapefruit bitterness. Hides alcohol well. Very good.

4oz sample in a full size tulip at brewery from the cask - Aroma and flavor are bright floral and citrus hops with a nice caramel malt finish. Pours transparent copper with a bubbly head and great lacing. Palate is crisp, tart and cask creamy. I just love really big hop monsters on cask and this did not dissapoint.
