Dec 27, 2008 Bouteille de 660 ml 2008. Nos yeux contemplent une bière de couleur cuivrée-rougeâtre ainsi qu un beau col de mousse fauve qui tient. Au nez une attaque de houblon citronné percute mon sens de l odorat. On découvre aussi de effluves de conifères et de caramel. En bouche le corps est moyen avec une effervescence moyenne. On goûte un parfum unique de houblon floral, pamplemousse et de conifère sur un fond de caramel. HUMMMM!

Dec 27, 2008 24oz. Bottle
Pours a very nice clean/clear golden orange color, very nice carbonation, very nice thick/creamy one-finger off-white head, with some thick/creamy sticky lacing left behind. The nose is hoppy, slight maltiness, with some citrus and slight pine. The taste is nice with some hoppiness, very slight malts, bitter, with some nice sweetness, and some citrus notes. Medium body. Very drinkable, this is a nice one, glad I got a chance to finally try it out, thanks Joe.

Dec 26, 2008 Dark brownish red body with a bubbly white head that leaves very nice lacing down the glass. Citrus rind hop arroma with some caramel, honey and florals. A light, not over powering bitter hoppy flavor with some florals. The bitterness intensifys near the finish. Not bad at all.

Dec 24, 2008 12th release. Pours transparent copper with huge frothy foamy head that lasts a long time (looks like rootbeer float foam). Aroma is hops and malts, but not as piny, resiny and I had expected. Flavor is more balanced than most IPAs -- in fact a bit watered down and weak to me. Still, a good ale, just not over the top like a lot of NW IPAs. I snagged the last three bottles the local distributor had of these. They willl probably all be gone by tomorrow.

Dec 23, 2008 Bottle. 2008 offering aka 12th release. Pours a clear orange amber color, which is surprising given the bit of sediment I saw floating throughout the bottle, with a hefty off white head which deflates quickly to about half of the original volume. Ample pine hops on the nose and a bit of malt. Body is a little bit thin at the start but turns a bit thicker as a creamy sweet maltiness comes through. Finish is overflowing with a quinine like bitterness which is wonderfully long lasting.
