BlackMail (55), Evergreen, Colorado, USA Jul 6, 2008 Poured golden with a short lived head. The aroma was slightly spicy. Tasted some what sweet with a slight hop after taste. HonkeyBra (1263), Lemont, Illinois, USA Jul 3, 2008 Pours a rich gold color witha white head. Aroma is mostly spice and yeast, apricot, banana. Taste is fruity and yeasty, with soft hops in the finish.Mouthfeel is nice, and alcohol is well-hidden. A very enjoyable ale. kidmartinek (972), austin, Texas, USA Jul 3, 2008 apricot colored, see through. 2 inch dense foam top. Mild Belgian yeast, malt and spice aroma. The flavor is tart, bittersweet, yeasty, and mellow alcohol. It tickles the tongue, and goes down easy with a warm feeling. Guinness4Duff (507), Tallahassee (and Poconos, PA), Florida, USA Jul 2, 2008 Bottle. Golden orange pour with a thick white head. Sweet malty aroma with bananas and cloves along with other fruit accents. Taste is sweet and spicy. Very good. jb (1023), Rochester, New York, USA Jul 2, 2008 Nice looking bright orange with foamy head that recedes quickly and leaves some lacing. Aroma of banana, butterscotch, apples, sour and yeasty. Feel is rich, sticky, boozy but in a good way. Tastes of cinammon, alcohol, it is really good. KAF (441), Coralville, Iowa, USA Jun 27, 2008 Golden pour with a white head. Apple nose with some orange peel as well. Cinnamon and other light spices in the taste as well as some light fruits. Slightly bitter finish. cmillward (418), Orlando, Florida, USA Jun 25, 2008 Bomber with some age. Ruddy orange slightly hazy body, thin cream head cresting this brew. Boozy sweet malts, yeast and some harsh metal hints on the nose. Sweet, lots of alcohol, fruits and grainy. Too heavy in the mouth despite a fair amount of carbonation. Blah, not for me, maybe fresher? GG (1609), NorCal, California, USA Jun 24, 2008 This one just wasn’t for me. If I wanted to drink rubbing alcohol, I know exactly where to find it. I simply don’t want it in my beer. For me, this had a decisively isopropyl flavor, especially on the finish. Gave me the shivers each time I would swallow the sip. The aroma has a pleasant fruityness, combined with a clean malt/yeast profile really had me going for a second. This just failed to deliver. Overly sweet, too much alcohol...just bleh.
