elmatador00 (513), j-action-ville, North Carolina, USA Oct 26, 2007 Draft at brewpub. 10 oz. snifter. Pours a cloudy reddish with a good size tan head. Hints of simcoe hops, cascade hops, citrus fruits, candied sugar, spices. Finished smooth and stuck to my tongue like a STD. Very impressed with this one from this brewery. Tmoney99 (3397), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Oct 20, 2007 Draft sample at Knoxville Brew Jam. Poured a hazy copper with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate floral sour citrus hoppy aroma. Medium to full body. Heavy bittersweet flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate duration. Another good beer from this brewer. Suttree (2237), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Oct 14, 2007 Ever so faintly cloudy orange, with a white head. Really enticing resiny, piney aroma. A little earthy at first, then an explosion of grapefruit and other citrusy hops. Long sticky finish. Impressive. At the 2007 Knoxville Brewer’s Jam. TURDFERGUSON (960), Carrboro, North Carolina, USA Sep 26, 2007 On draught at Brewgrass ’07. The second beer I had of the festival. I wasnt really in the beer drinking mood for some reason on this day, but this could have easily changed everything. Amazing floral pine aroma with a thick, juicy citrus hop flavor and a perfectly balanced caramel malt backbone. This is really well made, fresh, clean, and oh so tasty. Alcohol hidden and bitterness just pefect. Well done TL! kp (6000), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Date: 12/18/2006

clear amber, fine dirty white head, lots of lace, huge sweet pine aroma, creamy body, tons of hop flavor on a sweet caramel base, hop flavor builds on your tongue but the bitterness is low making it very drinkable,
