blankboy (3165), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 7, 2005 Bottle. Poured a clear amber with a large frothy white head. Very nice aroma of hops and caramel. Flavour of hops and citrus. No skunkyness at all in the aroma or flavour in this bottle. This is good stuff! larsniclas (3383), Gothenburg, Sweden Aug 5, 2005 Bottled.
Amber, small bubbly head.
Aroma from chocolate, toffe and maube oak.
Chocolate and hop in the flavour. HogTownHarry (3922), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada Aug 3, 2005 Updated: Aug 26, 2005Bottle (500ml). Poured cloudy orange with an okay large-bubbled head, no lacing. Aroma is of hops, slightly sour malt, oranges - a bit skunky, to be honest. Taste is extremely light - eventually it’s a bit bitter, not much malt character, and yes, mildly skunky. Very flat and watery mouthfeel, not much linger to it. Pass. KAggie97 (2406), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA Jul 23, 2005 Updated: Sep 18, 2005Rerate, bottle. Aroma is a pungent mix of dirt and hops. Pours a thin, watery orange/red. Flavor is a slippery mix of malt, hops, and earth, with hints of chamomile and a touch of caramel in the finish. Not bad. Ughsmash (3983), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Jul 15, 2005 Clear golden pour with a light head. Nice sweet and hoppy aroma. Some citrus noted in the flavor (orange/tangerine). Slightly bitter finish. Very smooth and well-balanced all the way through, but a bit mild on all fronts. BeerRules (237), Houston, Texas, USA Jul 14, 2005 Smells, well, kinda sour and skunky. tastes kinda the same way, but not as offensive as the smell. However there is some pleasant fruitiness and toffee like flavors. Watery and not much carbonation. Im not gonna say it sucks, because it doesnt, but I just couldnt bring myself to like it, guess its just not for me. Couldnt finish it. bowen008 (134), Houston, Texas, USA Jul 12, 2005 Bottle, I will try another later because this poured with no head. The beer is completely flat. It should have at least one bubble of carbonation. Sour smell at opening but as it sits it tastes and smells better. It is important to note that this beer is sold as English Ale in some places. Citrus flavor with gold to light copper color. stickranger (3), Brookhaven, Pennsylvania, USA does not count Jul 9, 2005 Nice color. Very bitter, Sweet and hoppy at the sam etime. A little bit of sour smell right when opened. The bottle is great. tha tis what caught my eye at the store.
