Yeasty cashew and walnut aroma. Hazy copper color, floating sediments, and no head. There is a strong bitter flavor of orange, pine, and yeast. Pine needle finish. Full bodied, more than strong enough, decent balance, but not great tasting.

Oct 6, 2008 22oz bottle from the brewery. She comes out in a nice cloudy burnt orange. Decent head fades rather quickly but carbonation keeps bubbling from the bottom. Aroma is hops hops hops and some malt. Lovely smell, there’s some fruit in there too. She tastes of hops hops hops and fresh fruit. Solid taste with a lot going on. Slight warm of alcohol finish. Lasting mouthfeel, I can still taste it. Mmm that’s good. Lacing is there but not much to talk about. Excellent brew, A+++ will drink again

Oct 3, 2008 Amber-orangeish color, with a fluffy white, leaving laces, candied orange peel nose with a nice apricot flowery hop accent, with some cedary, coniferous, resiny pine niddle notes and a hint of hemp leafiness in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, toasty malt, candied apricot, orange peel, marmalade character, than wow!! a nice flowery hop lush conefirous, cedary, resiny, pine niddle flavor, kind concentrated hoppy pallet , but well balanced with a mellow sweetness, leading towards a citrus, lemony, lime, cedary, leafy hop bitterness finish.

Sep 29, 2008 Impressive brew, not as aromatic or full bodied and texture, and the finish was Ok. But very complex and interesting from the 1st taste. Hops are complex, a friend said "Stone IPA", which isn’t a bad thing. Bottled seemed fresh. I have several more and look forward to trying again and again as this brew isn’t around So Cal.

Sep 18, 2008 Flaske. Til at fejre min nyfødte datter, her på min kones fødselsdag er dette virkelig en treat. Tusind tak til vedkommende der gjorde det muligt. Du ved hvem du er.
På trods af at den er et par måneder gammel er humlen dejlig frisk i næsen. Karboneringen er ikke helt i orden hvilket gør at der ikke er noget skum. Det er måske den eneste kritik af denne super øl. Smagen er let citrus med en smule mango, og n masse friskeblomster. Mundfylden er helt perfekt på trods af den manglende karbonering hvilket gør den ikke er rent 5 tal. Fantastisk lækker øl.
