zacgillbanks (957) - Tyne & Wear, ENGLAND - MAY 18, 2013
Bottle from Coppers, Newcastle. This red amber beer pours with a very large foamy head. It has a spicy red fruity and orange marmalade flavour, zesty citrus and toffee notes with a creamy mouthfeel and more citrus on the finish. Superb!

Great pour, beautiful creamy head, brilliant head retention. Really good fusion of the IPA and Belgian Strong Ale. Hops and bitterness at first then big toffee and some Belgian yeast flavours.

VictorStr (311) - Helsingborg, SWEDEN - APR 21, 2013
Frisk fruktig och humlignaroma. Besk eftersmak som dröjer sig kvar ett tag, drar lite i kindbenen.

kryon (690) - SWEDEN - APR 17, 2013
Pours red amber w low white head Aromas of candi syrup, bretta, citrus, biscuits Sweet round hoppy makes feel like an IPA but then the bretta takes over... Not sure if I like it or not. Overall well balanced

adnielsen (6187) - Fort Collins, Colorado, USA - MAR 20, 2013
Bottle @ Bill’s house, picked up at Argonaut Denver (I believe). Pours a murky brown appearance with a huge, foamy, light brown head. Somewhat funky, very herbal, grassy, toasted malty, lightly fruity aroma. Light caramel, earthy, dull citrusy, a bit tangy, somewhat spicy flavor that dries out a bit on the finish. Not all that hard to drink but disconnected and lacking direction.

aletiosso (37) - São Paulo, BRAZIL - MAR 15, 2013
Cor acobreada. Espuma creme e persistente com bolhas pequenas. Aroma herbáceo do lúpulo bem evidente. Aroma de açúcar mascavo, e um pouco frutada. Bem carbonatada, médio corpo. Sabor com médio dulçor. Amargor proeminente e herbáceo, bem lupulada. Sabor do malte também aparece em menor quantidade. Final seco e amargor persistente. Excelente cerveja, bem refrescante. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pours hazy golden color with a large head. Aroma of hops, sour fruits, spices and some caramel malts. Flavor is the same with some toffee. Very nice.
