Aromas of caramel, citrus, toasted and roasted nuts, and a little earthy. Tastes of caramel, citrus and nutty. Tastes and body on the thin and almost watery side. BückDich (4605), Boise, Idaho, USA Nov 24, 2004 Aged cantelope color, light head & lacing. Nose of lotion, baby powder & light crisp malts & noble hops. Tastes similar with more hoppy notes & ginger like tones. Finishes strongly carbonated & balanced. Not bad, just unique, and not in a way I like.<b>Thanks Indiana Red!</b> DocLock (4175), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 1, 2006 This is the most under-rated beer I’ve yet had in 2006, but remember that I am a proud hophead. First of all, the guys at Bison must be color-blind because this beer is dark straw, not even a hint of red. The aroma is very highly hopped, with fruit, black peppery and floral spicy notes. Definite 9 for aroma. The flavor is hoppy and citric, with grapefruit and canteloupe hints. Medium palate. Gets hoppier with more tropical notes as it warms. I would, and I will, drink this again. In fact, I’m going back to Total Wine tomorrow to get more of this. beerguy101 (3545), Newark, California, USA Oct 8, 2004 Reddish amber color. Large sized white foamy head. Malts are fruity and sweet, touch of caramel. Hops are slightly spicy and a touch grapefruity. Fairly typical amber. Nicely balanced. Very lively carbonation. Very drinkable but not very special. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.
