Deep amber color with a ruby hue. Dark head and smells of floral hops, dark fruits and a little citrus. Toasty, breaddy and hoppy in the mouth. Nice body and smooth. A delight to sip away to.

Jan 6, 2010 On tap: I couldn’t smell much of an aroma in the bar surroundings. Dark amber colour, small head. Enjoyable balance of hops and malt. Rich with notes of chocolate and fruit balanced out by the hop bitterness.

Jan 6, 2010 07/01/2009. Tap at Hashigo Zake. Pours an appealing deep red with a creamy off white head. Rich caramel malt with fruit and nut chocolate characters. Balanced bitterness draws you in for another draught. I’m not sure how old this beer is but it does lack a little hop sparkle and fresh punchiness on the nose... still delicous though. It’s richness makes it closer to an ESB than an American Pale Ale. This beer may well have tipped the scales in a little argument that I’ve been having with myself.

Jan 3, 2010 66cl bottle. Frothy, light orange head with a copper body. Hoppy nose but not overwhelming. Nice balance between hops and malt. Overall i would say this is an excellent example of an amber ale.

Dec 22, 2009 Draught at The Local Taphouse, Sydney.Appears dark copper with a laced beige head. Rich toffee malts, caramel, coffee, nuts and fruity hops. Heaps of flavour coming through and truly compliments the overall balance of this beer. True US style amber ale with a smooth hoppy finish. Very nice and has a welcomed freshness from the keg, which I’ve noticed with other Rogue ales.

Dec 16, 2009 Bottled, 355ml from Bellingers Garage, Grove, Oxon. Reddish amber with white head. Sweetish malts dominate this beer with a light, roasty fruity character, some apricot, peachy notes, then a light hop giving an even fruitier depth. Decent and drinkable.

Dec 15, 2009 12 ounce bottle from the Utah State Store. Pours a clear amber color with a medium white head and lots of lacing. A sweet aroma of caramel, light grassy hops. A sweet flavor as well, but with loads of bitter balance; caramel and toasted malts, light bitter hops. Pretty good.
