Feb 25, 2009 Nice balance of hops and roasty malts with a hint of spicy sweet aftertaste. Served in Trappist glass, poured dark amber with a medium light-tan head, lacing was definitely noticeable. Nice ale that is not too sweet. Full of body and character with a strong finish.

Feb 24, 2009 Bottle. Pours a deep amber color, and a medium head. Aroma is lightly roasted malty sweetness and a good citrus flavor, grapefruit, bloodorange. Taste follows, nutty and somewhat spicy malty sweetness. Medium body, lots of residual sweetness. Finishes with a decent hop bite.

Feb 24, 2009 Pours a dark amber red with a dense off white head. Quite a malty flavour. Quite strong with a very bitter finish. Good, but sort of hard to drink I thought.

Feb 23, 2009 Pours a dark amber with a decent sized tan head and little lacing. Aroma of sweet malts and clean hops. Great balance of hops and malts makes this one complex in flavor. Very good.

Feb 22, 2009 22oz bottle from the Brass Tap in Wesley Chapel, FL. Pours a dark red-brown but still opaque. Thin yellowish head. My new favorite bottle. Aroma is mostly grapefruit, pine, and grass. Flavor is a bit of malt up front...and then tons of bitter pine sap dominating the rest of the way. Pretty damn bitter. Wow, bitter aftertastes are really growing on me..nice sappy, bitter aftertaste...Medium mouthfeel...This beer is pretty damn intense...It seriously kicks the shit out of your palate....but it is pretty damn good.

Feb 20, 2009 my first really really good beer, the first time i tried this the best beer i had to that point was heineken. This beer surprised the hell out of me because up till then i expected beer to have little taste if any at all. Remains one of my favorites right behind double bastard ale. Best served a little below room tempature
