sneagrams3 (1704), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Apr 7, 2008 The Dan Journal #164. Tasted 4/5/08. Hazy with a golden hue. Spiraling white head. Overt nose! Big grapefruit and citrus note. Hint of sugary circus peanuts. Nice palate with a ton of hops! Medium bodied with smooth base malts. Bitter crisp and tart hop palate. Rolling in the hop garden. Fun drinking! radagast83 (1273), Fairfax, Virginia, USA Apr 7, 2008 22 oz bottle. The beer pours a golden yellow with a large white head. The beer tastes pretty light to be honest - something I didn’t actually expect. Aroma of citrus, pines, and hops. undsioux7 (553), Cologne, Minnesota, USA Apr 2, 2008 Pours a cloudy golden with a rather large head. Light aroma, a lot of hops and a little caramel. Slightly sweet, solid bitterness that sticks around.

Slightly sweet, solid bitterness that sticks around. Hudspart (371), Hudsonville, Michigan, USA Apr 1, 2008 22 oz bottle ordered from CA: Pours orange with a large thick head. Heavy aroma of hops and slight citrus. Great flavor of hops. Not too much. Very good. GeneralGao (3051), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Mar 31, 2008 22oz bottle. Poured a clear light orange color. Head was thick and off white with decent retention. Some lace was left behind at the end. Attractive aroma of crushed spruce needles, grapefruit, orange marmalade, and brown sugar. Initial delicate sweetness was quickly suppressed by assertive hop bitterness that peaked at about 7 out of 10. Light to medium bodied with caramel and citrusy/sprucy/sweaty hop flavors. Tasty. santos999 (318), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 28, 2008 Courtesy of foureyedgeek. Chunky bits float in an orange body with a thin beige head. Smells old and skunky, with cardboard, caramel, and slight hop notes. Tastes the same as the smell, and very flat and watery. Boring. Skip. dpjuart (670), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 28, 2008 Bomber courtesy of foureyedgeek. Pours hazy, light copper with fizzy white head, thin and lingering. Nose is big on caramel and toffee, slight butter. Big caramel wit ha touch of chocolate and toffee, slight bread. Nice bitter at the end, moderate to moderate +. Good balance overall. Love the bitter. Nice beer. Not overly hopbomb-ie.
