22oz bottle: Pours a transparent orange amber with a spotty-lacing off-white head. Has a fresh resiny hoppy nose with some lightly sweet pale malts. Starts with good fullness and light malty sweetness with good citrusy hop flavor and resiny bitterness before a drier crisp bittersweet finish. True to style and enjoyable.

3fourths (6958) - Vilnius, LITHUANIA - SEP 15, 2012
bottle. lightly hazed amber with a small white head. alcohol and resinous hops in the nose with spicy pine needle, curry and turmeric accents, strange as that seems. medium-full body with assertive bitterness and acidity; chewy sugar and harsh acids with noticeable alcohol throughout. carbonation is well-suited for the body but orange oil / resin dominates the mouth and a brash herbaceousness lingers in the long finish.

adnielsen (6216) - Fort Collins, Colorado, USA - OCT 5, 2012
Bottle @ home, picked up at Wilbur’s Foco. Pours a bit hazy, dark orange appearance with a cream colored head. Quite spicy, herbal, grapefruity hoppy, somewhat thick malty aroma. Somewhat chewy, grapefruity, sappy, bubblegum, mildly piney, thick flavor with a pretty balanced finish. Good carbonation and overall a nice beer.
