22 oz. bottle. Different label than that in the picture. Pours a hazy iced-tea brown with a thin light-tan head. Nicely balanced aroma with a moderate amount of piney hops and caramelly malts. Pretty earthy. Medium body. Mild amount of both hops and malts in the taste. A little caramel, sap and alcohol. A sour, bitter finish. Nothing special.

Red brown. Nice foamy head leaving lacings as you drink. Flowers and citrus from the hops in the nose. Rather mild bitterness with a reasonable maltiness and pronounced flowery taste with some grapefruit.

22 oz. bottle. Pours cloudy dark amber color with thin off white head. Decent lacing as I drank. Kind of a tart aroma, reminds me of chewable vitamin C I used to eat as a kid. Very mild Bitter tastewise. I can drink this on a nice hot day. Very mild hop taste, decent malt body. Thin on the palate. No aftertaste. I like Brutal better.

Mildly spicy and citrus hop aroma. Cloudy amber with a thumb thick head. Easy drinking ale with a mild hop presence medium malt body and somewhat thin palate. Decent enough.

Pours hazy dark orange with a foamy off-white head. Creamy and malty aroma with some spicy hints and orange notes - nice and balanced. Malt and hop flavor with a dry and dusty edge. Pretty light in the taste and a bit thin, but easy drinkable. Hmmm.....

An orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is OK hoppy, while the flavor is dry hoppy, and the body is thin. OK, but I had expected more, so I’m somewhat disappointed.
