| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 11, 2008 Bottle. Mostly clear amber with a quickly fading head. Aroma of spices and alcohol. Flavor compliments the aroma with mild sweetness. Fizzy, medium bodied, warming, and easy to drink. This is good but rather uninteresting. kyzr (1127), Belgrade, Montana, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 5, 2008 smell is spicy and of honey. pours a hazy dark orange. taste of honey is evident. slight alcohol warming. also get some pepper which I guess comes from the coriander or paradise seed and may contribute to the warming sensation. smooth but tart palate. There is a lot going on in this beer and I think each component is trying to battle with the others instead of working together. nqualls (1428), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 1, 2008 Poured a deep hazy yellow with a huge white head. Smell was your typical malts, spices and oranges. It tastes like its aroma. Some citrus flavors and spice. Decent beer. markwise (1200), 15 Minutes from Kuhnhenn in, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 29, 2008 It pours a deep yellow with a healthy white head. It smells of spiciness, orange peel, and slight hops; I swear I get some sour orange flavor. Flavor is very bitter orange/ lemon and it finish smoothly with some bitterness lingering to say good-bye. I like this beer. kiefdog (1634), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 29, 2008 12oz bottle from Willow Bend Liquors (Tampa, FL). Pours a nice dark copper color with a thin white head. Aroma is burnt sour orange, sweet caramel, toffee notes and yeasty bready notes. Flavor is sweet and malty with notes orange, bread, yeast and caramel. Medium body with a slightly hoppy finish. Nice ale. RollinHard (761), Fort Worth, Texas, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Jul 28, 2008 Many thanks go out to alexsdad06 for a few of these. Pours burnt orange/tan with gold highlights, cloud as hell with a long lasting moderate white head. Looks nice to me. Aroma is on the dessert side of fruit and spice with a lot of orange, cinnemon, coriander, wheat, brown sugar, caramel, spiced Christmas bread, and a bit of banana, pear and fruitcake. All over the place. Tastes along a similar line, but more malty than the aroma with brown sugar, caramel, dessert breads and a bit of coriander tang, orange peel and rye. Finishes with a strong grain flavor on the throat and orange/spice on the tongue. Sort of a lingering tangy bitterness, but it’s not hoppy. Creamy texture and carbonation is fairly high; full bodied but shy of being sticky and viscous. Reminds me of Brasserie de Rocs Ambree a bit. Very good stuff IMO.

The aroma is sweet and acidic with light notes of brettanomyces and farmhouse. The flavor is sweet, but also with a slight acidic edge and a light alcohol burn. The mouthfeel is smoothe and milk like.
