Dec 2, 2007 Pours medium yellow with an average sized white head.
Perfumed aroma of citrus - oranges.
It takes finesse to craft a big malty strong ale that retains balance yet retains complexity and high drinkability. This one needs work as well.
Not a bad brew, but this one doesn’t put it all together s it should.

Dec 1, 2007 fresh hoppy floral aroma. Rich deep golden and dense off white head. Smooth hop malt balance with slight creamy and floral flavors. nice carbonation level. finishes slightly sweet somewhere between wet and dry with reasonable bitterness.

Nov 29, 2007 Poured from a 22oz bottle and served in a shaker. This beer poured a slightly hazy golden amber with a very thin, off-white head. Decent retention. Solid lace encompassed the entire glass. The aroma included fragrent floral hops, grapefruit, and butterscotch. The flavor consisted of bitter pine, butterscotch, and a hint of wheat. The mouthfeel was full-bodied and resiny with ample carbonation. Not a bad beer, but not all that interesting either. The wheat put up a good fight in the beginning, but the alcohol took over by the end of the glass.

Nov 25, 2007 650 ml bomber, shared with StompBrockmore - pours very slightly cloudy apricot with a small head. Big fruity and grassy aroma, but not that big - I was expecting a bit more ooomph. Interesting hop combination, though - don;t think I’ve tasted or smelled either of these before (at least that I know about). Flavour similar to a dIPA with that sweet/alcoholic/fruity combo ever-present. The malt is in good proportion to the hops. The entire thing is smooth, creamy, and not hugely complex, but nicely put together. Good beer, but not one that stands out in the hop-crazy American brewing landscape.
