(12oz bottle, courtesy of Cavie) Pours a clear golden body with a medium white head. Aroma of orange, mango, bread, and caramel. Flavor of caramel, grass, florals, and orange with a lingering bitter finish.

Botella, Abraxas. Hazy - chunky, actually - and blonde. Aroma is a little stodgy but there’s also some florals. A little muddled and the bitterness is indinstinct.

Bottle shared by alexsdad06. Poured clear copper color with an average frothy off-white head that was mostly lasting with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy complex hop aroma. Medium to full body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Medium to heavy bitter flavor with a medium to heavy bittersweet finish of moderate to long duration. This is a good beer that exceeded my expectations.

Bottle… Clear burnt-orange ale with millions of floaties and a large, creamy, off-white head. Fantastic retention. Fruity, malty nose – toffee, caramel, and a mélange of orange and other citrus fruits. Full-bodied and creamy with lazy carbonation. Plenty of bitter, flavorful hops supported by a large malt backbone that compliments rather than outshines. Finishes bitter and tongue-numbing. Low sweetness throughout. This beer is a meal and totally means business.

Bottle. Hazy amber color, medium white head. Aroma of grapefruit, pine, tropical fruit. Taste starts sweet then balanced pine resin.

Bottle courtesy of Craftbeerdesign (thanks Geoff) poured a hazy orange amber with a lasting amber head. Aromas of biscuit, grapefruit, light orange zest and a hint of pine. Palate was medium bodied and smooth with a dry finish. Flavors of biscuit, grapefruit, orange zest and a hint of pine with a smooth drey moderatly bitter citrus finish.

Bottle from Doodler. Pours clear amber with an average, fizzy white head, medium retention with light lacing. Aroma is cookie and biscuit malt, fruity esters, pine, citrus, and floral hops. Flavor is hop dominant with supporting malt and fruity esters with a dry finish. Medium body, warmth, and carbonation.

Bottled. Poured slightly-hazy, duller golden with a short, dense off-white head. The aroma picked up resiny pine and sweet grapefruit over caramel and lightly-honeyed base.. came across strong, but without an overt alcohol presence.. simple and clean. The flavor opened with bright, tart citrus zest and black pepper.. sugary-sweet caramel at the core.. warm, peppery, and a tad gritty on the finish. Medium-plus bodied and well-carbonated on the palate,, became rough in the end.. OK overall.

Bottle courtesy of drowland. Pours copper with a white head. Smells resiny and floral with some spicy undertones. Tastes spicy and resiny with a dry bitter finish. Enjoyable.
