Commercial Description:
Weighing in at approximately 10% abv, this beer is almost too smooth for its own good...Plenty of hop in the nose and mouth, but enough malt to make it scarily drinkable.

An amber beer with a small disappearing white head. The aroma is very sweet and very hoppy. The flavor is sweet and extremely hoppy as well as grassy - slightly weird flavor - is it the hops used?

(SCBE2003): Clear straw with a small white head. Aroma is grapefruit, medium sweet, not particularly strong. Taste is intense with grapefruit, alcohol, strange spice. I found it unpleasantly unbalanced -- did not like it.

Poured a medium amber with an averaged sized head. Hoppy, piney and spicy aromas and tastes. Sweet balance. I liked this one.

Draft @ Falling Rock - Clear amber red color. Sweet bubble-gum and citrus hop nose with some moments of cherry. Quite the hop monster, sweet overall with a fresh candy-sugar and starchy, thick mouthfeeel... dulls the tongue with the hops used, but not a bad bitterness either... smooth hop dullness I guess you could say.
