Oct 7, 2008 Pous a cloudy pale amber with a medium fluffy white head. Aroma is medium sweet with orange, spicy, light bread and faint caramel. Flavor is orange, spicy, grapefruit. Big time hops in this one, no doubt about that! Medium body, very crisp texture.

Oct 6, 2008 Sam Adams does it again Bravo. Pours out a cloudy golden with an orange hue. Big rocky white head that laces globs as it dies. Smell is very earthy, piney, big hops and a little sweet. Taste is big on hops, bittering, again earthy and piney. Sweet malt provides a nice balance. Full but crisp in the mouth and an outstanding drinkability. ABV is not obvious. A big bitter, hoppy delight. Try it! you will love it.

Oct 5, 2008 Incredible nose of dry flowers - almost Pine-Sol like. Clear golden color with little carbonation. Passes the tongue very dry. A little salty, with lots of bitterness, something like an olive.

Oct 4, 2008 Bottle. Poured a clear copper/red color with a small white head. Aroma of spice and hops. Flavor is very hoppy, with a decent malt backing. Medium/full body with good carbonation and a creamy/sticky mouthfeel.

Oct 3, 2008 A copper color with a thick white head. Aroma is of deep, spicy hops. Flavor is all hops. Spicy, wonderful hops. Mouthfeel is impressive, and finish is still hops. Basically, much better than any imperial lager I’ve ever had. Obviously special, and very good.
