Jan 19, 2009 Small Bottle. Dark red to amber color, medium sized head with lacing that lasts through the beer. Very big beer, lots of strong hops and there is a nice oaky flavor, not overly oaked, the balance is really great. It hits pretty hard but still goes down pretty smoothly.

Jan 18, 2009 (11/3/08) Draught sample at the brewpub in Escondido. Deep reddish-amber color. Aroma of hops, light citric hints, some wood and some caramel. Sweet malty flavor with oaky notes, some light earth, some fruits and a bitter hoppy finish. Medium-bodied, a bit oily.

Jan 14, 2009 12oz bottle poured into an English pint glass. OABA pours amber-colored with a medium-sized head that leaves the thickest, meatiest lacing I have ever seen. It smells like hops, oak and cherry medicine. This version of Arrogant Bastard is better balanced than the original. It is still an extremely large beer, being thick and hoppy but it is smoother and much more drinkable. The taste includes heavy hops, mellowing oak and sweet malts. This is an excellent beer that finishes with truckloads of flavor and alcohol tingle.

Jan 14, 2009 Hoppy and aggressive, but very nice. Dark with little to no head. Nice aroma. Taste of malts and caramel and a bit of pine like the original, but nice oak presence as well.

Jan 10, 2009 On tap at Novare Res. Brilliant beer. Aroma of oak, vanilla, toffee, peach and sweet malt. This is absolutely awesome! Flavor blows you away with a clean crisp, not overly sweet, not overly hopped, well balanced beer. This stuff is fantastic.
