thanks TimE! / canned; stamped 07.08.30 / the nose is orange, hoppy, a bit spicy, then afterwhile it becomes maltier; copper body, dark orange highlight with lingering, off-white head that is a bit rocky; sweet, smooth, and delicious--a little caramel, resiny and hoppy; a great can of beer--very nice!

Aug 11, 2007 Deep amber color. Another hop bomb nose, this time peaches, strawberries and a touch of citrus. Citrusy mouth with strawberries and cherries sitting in the background. Very light body, but more bitter than the golden ale, which is good. Peaches and strawberries just linger in the finish. Yum.

Apr 23, 2007 Medium very light brown head with larger bubbles. Deep amber body. Deep sweetish mango aroma with hints of roastiness. Deep roasty tropical fruit hop taste with resiny hop notes. A little watery, yet some bitterness throughout. Dry burnt aftertaste with wooden notes. Very nice. (0.35l can.)
