2009. Copper pour with an off-white head. Aroma of citrus hops. The hop flavor leaves a decent aftertaste. The beer itself is enjoyable. It left nice lacing.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a very hazy orange amber with a moderate off-white head that lasted until the last sip and left partial lace. A moderate amount of indiscriminate small carbonation bubbles continue to rise to the surface until the end as well. Pleasant aroma of grapefruit along with a few pine notes. Trace amount of caramel in the nose. Mild caramel in the flavor followed by a wash of grapefruit that is both fruit and pith along with some light pine. Strong bitterness at the finish, but not acerbic. Solid beer.

bottle bought in rome, italy. Nice light orange with a thick head. Amazing piney hop aroma, very inviting. Looks like a totally dryhopped ipa, the hop aroma dominates the malt, the body is light, so the beer results very easy to drink. Overall i really enjoyed this beer.

Golden orange body with short but lasting head. Hops on the nose and mainly in the taste, good bitterness, grapefruit, not heavy so fairly easy to drink.

Similar, but more earthy than Torpedo. Different hops perhaps? Less hop focus and slightly more malt. More body, and a subdued (less crisp) sweetness.

A: Pours a lovely amber orange color with a thunderous head. There is sheets of lacing left behind as the contents disappear, and boy do they disappear. S: Nice floral hop aroma. Fresh cut grass and citrus dominate. T: Very nice spicey taste right up front. The grapefruit really comes thru as does hints of pine. M: Medium bodied and sharp on the tongue. D: My new session beer.
