Clear medium to dark amber orange colour with a small, frothy, fair lacing, mostly to fully diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate to heavy malty, toasted - roasted, moderate hoppy. Flavour is moderate to heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration, soapy - flowery hops, dried fruit. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20110525]

Draft. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of hops, prunes, malt, and fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and over ripe fruits.

From tap at MikkellerBar. Pours clear and Golden orange to amber. Bitter and solid grapefruity. Bistres, sweet, caramelish and sendes fruity. Endsige bitter and bone dry. Smooth  Hoppy finish.

On tap. Pours an almost clear amber with a small, rough off-white head. Interesting liqueur aroma with candied oranges - Grand Marnier! Full-bodied, lots of white sugars, again Grand Marnier notes and a peachy touch. There’s some bitterness in the finish but most is buried under the booze. I’m certainly no great fan of British hops, but in this US beer they work well indeed. 250511
