Bottle shared from Deanso. Pours hazy amber with an off white head. Aroma of malt, caramel, orange. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

33cl bottle from the molen. Thin creamy white head. Hazy amber pour. Subtle bitterness.

Appearance- amber, golden brown Smell- hoppy with a hint of floral notes Taste- wheat, bitter, medium bodied Overall slightly bitter but very enjoyable

This is a very hearty pale ale. It is quite hoppy which I am not a fan of because it comes across as bitter to me. It really has that earthy factor and even a bit nutty.

Bottle. Fruity caramel malt aroma. Clear copper with a small white head. Biscuity malt, spicy herbal hops flavor. Medium body, soft carbonation.

Bottle. Peach, orange, and light caramel malt aroma. Golden yellow with small head. Lightly sweet orange caramel malt and mild bitter orange peel flavor. Okay.

11 months old, and actually tasty. Appearance: Pours looking super hazy. When held up to the light, the center of the glass is orange while the sides of the glass are more yellow. Nice off-white head sticks around, as does the lacing. Smell: Unusual. I’m not sure what it is. Almost smells like a wet trunk, but it somehow manages to not be disgusting. There’s a nice malt and hop aroma buried beneath that odd smell. Not the highlight of Pandemonium. Taste: Gives the wet trunk vibe as well, but it’s quickly made up with a nice balance of hops and malt. The finish is bitter with some bready malt flavors. Quite enjoyable. Feel: Has to be the highlight of this beer. This has a pretty creamy feel, and also yields some nice carbonation. Pleasantly surprised. I liked this beer more and more with every sip. This doesn’t taste much at all like typical pale ales I’ve had in the past, so I recommend it pretty highly for that reason alone. Interesting for a pale ale.

Bottle. Pours a copper color with thin white head and medium lacing. Aroma of citrus and hops. Taste floral and hops but balanced well with malt. Solid Pale Ale ----Hophaze out

Bottle picked up at Tiffany’s in Kalamazoo. Pours a clear gold/ amber, small almost non existent white head. Nose is malty. Taste is bitter but very malt forward.

Color is amber. Aroma and taste are fruits, caramel, malt and hops. Nice bitterness, not just bitter for the sake of being bitter. Nice drinkable beer
