12 oz bottle pours pleasant amber red liquid with a moderately lasting small white head. Nose is slight, fresh malty and subtly floral. Flavor is first floral, then malt, grapefruit, trailing off with a bit of bitterness and saltiness at the end. Medium body and nice mouthfeel. I have to admit, I started drinking and rating this just from the fridge...not a good idea, but I was thirsty! Anyway, more sweet malt and bigger citrus notes evident as it warms. Some odd organic ester (banna?) coming through also. Enjoyable brew, but not my favorite type.

Orange tan color, no real head but a bit of lacing. The aroma is not very strong, slightly sweet with a bit of grapefruit. Smooth, very drinkable, strong peach aftertaste. Refreshing.

Bottle. Poured burnished coper with thin fast dissipating white head. Little lacing. Rather thin aroma, come caramel, some malt. Full flavour, lot of sweet malt, caramel and toffee. Full finish, with a bit of saltiness..

Grainy golden color with a small foamy white head, that seems to have the starting signs of good retention. Malty, albeit somewhat chalky and grainy. Semi-sweet but not artifical tasting on the palate, some citrus, with some bready caramel notes. not extremely well balanced and probably not something I would seek out again, but not horrible.

Golden orange colored, moderate head, decent lacing and retention. Aroma is heavy on grain, with some alcohol and sugaryness. Light caramel and hops as well. Medium bodied, grainy, rough finish with some alcohol. Sloppy IMO.
