Feb 2, 2008 Ehhh...just didn’t do it for me. Pour was dark amber, little head or lacing. The flavor was heavy grapefruit with some caramel/toffee sweetness that seemed out of place. I just didn’t like it. Got even sweeter and more grapefruity as it warmed and the two flavors just didn’t "go" in my opinion.

Feb 2, 2008 Pours a nice dark amber color w/ a slight head. Light hoppy aroma, had a light taste with a bit of a pine in the after taste. Very drinkable, will definitely have again.

Feb 1, 2008 Tasting @ Capone’s: Poured a dark amber color with not a lot of head. The aroma was that of dirt and hops. The flavor had some sweetness like caramel with a nice balance of hops. Over all of our favorites at this tasting.

Jan 27, 2008 Very nice floral hop with a rich amber malt. This was highly drinkable and very pleasant. One of the better ambers I have had.

Jan 23, 2008 The beer has a slightly dark amber body topped off with a pretty thick white head. It has aromas of orange from what seems to be fresh hop. There is a very floral flavor with hints of green tea.

Jan 20, 2008 very tasty - is it really true to style given all the hops? who cares, it’s great

Jan 19, 2008 Bottle, thanks to TomDecapolis! Pours clear amber with a lacy off-white head. Medium-light body and carbonation. In both the aroma and taste, the pine and citrus of the hops battle the toffee and caramel of the malt. Neither one comes out a clear winner, but it’s a tasty draw. This is usually one of the ho-hum beer styles, but Tröegs does a nice job with this one. Can you say "Sessionable?" Sure you can.

Jan 19, 2008 I think I had a bad bottle. I’ll rerate after I have another. Poured dark amber with nice size off white head. Light aroma of malt. Very harsh alcohol taste. Some malt flavor to start but then the alcohol just dominated after a second. Undrinkable.
