Jun 26, 2009 Thanks to mrteabiscuit for this bottle.
The beer pours no head, but has good lacing. Orange/amber in color with a caramel and hop smell. Taste is toward the hop rather than sweet, but the balance is nice. The body is oily, and there are also sweet malt and alcohol smells here. Unfortunately the bitter lingers on the palette more than I would like. Overall a solid Rogue beer, but not sure it is worth the price one must pay for this one.

Jun 15, 2009 750ml bottle. Pours hazy auburn with a creamy white head. Smells of burnt sugar and malt, caramel, and prunes. Tastes of toffee, roasted sugar, sour malt, and fermented fruits. Creamy mouthfeel, some hop spiciness. Long sour and bitter aftertaste. Some alcohol presence. Not too bad.

Jun 12, 2009 "Yet another over priced beer from Rogue that will be of high quality and drinkable but nowhere near worth the price I paid for it, but I’ll keep on buying them because me is stupid. Clear reddish brown body with a thick 1” cap. Slippery roapy lacing is being left behind on ever single sip. Aroma is sweet and hoppy and that being of the grape fruit variety but what ells do you get from the west coast. I swear I keep getting whiffs of chocolate. 100% west coast tasting beer, heavy on the hops, slightly sweet, with a bitter malty finish. This is still a very drinkable brew it’s just nothing special any more. Woody spicy alcohol start to appear the longer I drink. peach, grape fruit maybe just maybe some pine also make appearances. If I would have drank this beer 3 years ago it would have blown my mind with this intense ridiculous flavour but now this is just one of a thousand ( or even one of fifty from rogue ) beers that taste like this."
