Jul 3, 2008 I really enjoyed this beer, seemed really well balanced, and very smooth for the strength. I bought four more.

Jul 3, 2008 Bottle shared by CaptainCougar. Light copper color, a bit of haze but not much. Nose if pungent, spicy thyme and cannabis hops, pineapple rind and pungent, stinky, sugar-coated, assertive hops. A bit messy, I’ll admit, but still it’s quite straightforward with respect to hops, and ultimately it’s tasty. Bit of alcohol shows up after a little time, which I could do without, but overall it’s nice.

Jul 3, 2008 22oz bottle, courtesy of CaptainCougar. Thanks, Tom! Pours a slightly hazy orange-amber color; white head with a foamy perimeter of bubbles. Loads of resiny oranges, earthiness, and sweet candy sugar in the aroma; definitely sweet, but nice, soft, intense hop character. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: resiny, sweete orange and tree fruit hoppiness; surprisingly little astringency; very sweet, chewy candy sugar core; a bit heavy on the palate, but generous and enjoyable. Lengthy, bitter finish: tongue-numbing oranges and fruity hops; sugar and toasty malts; some lingering sweetness.
