| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | May 5, 2009 1 pt. bottle. Pours a light amber-orange with a small, foamy, off-white head. Skunky/wet dog aroma with some sweet malt in the background. Hints of caramel and pine in there as well. Medium carbonation with a medium-light mouthfeel. Slightly dry. Honey, caramel, slight floral notes, a touch of pine, and grass on the palate. Medium finish with a little honey sweetness and hop bitterness. A decent beer on the palate, but the wet dog smell makes it hard to enjoy. Medium lacing. wnp22 (682), Toronto (Roncesvalles Village), Ontario, Canada

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 2, 2008 Updated: Oct 19, 2008500mL bottle from the LCBO. I put this one off for FAR too long! I was worried about skunkage in this one, as well as being bad if not consumed fresh, but I am so pleasantly surprised. Pours an absolutely beautiful deep dark gold with a medium white creamy, think and rocky head. Gorgeous! Smells just as good! Hops upfront like crazy, but after putting my nose too far into the head, I got a nose full of foam that smelled like some of the most delicious malted barley I’ve ever come across. Grapefruity character to the hops. It even smells FRESH, despite being a few months old now. Low effervescence. I was worried this one would choke on the flavour, but thankfully I was wrong. A delicious blend of fresh tasting malt and hops blends together seamlessly, with just the right bitter hop bite in the finish leading into a delicious aftertaste of sweet malted barley. Awesome! Such a cool bottle too, I’m definitely going to be drinking this regularly now despite the high price tag. This seriously tastes as fresh as something from one of my local craft breweries. Well done, this brewery has yet to let me down. aubreya (676), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA
