Draft. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of oranges, other citrus fruits, and hops. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and hops, leading to a dry bitter finish.

(Bottle) Pours a cloudy orange body with a medium off-white head. Aroma of pine, sweet candy, and light lemon. Flavor of sweet caramel, sugar coated dried pineapple and mango, citrusy hops, and then more pine comes through as it warms. Mild bitterness that finishes dry.

Pours a clear bronze orange with a spotty-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet crystal malt and some fresh resiny grapefruity hops. Body starts lightly sweet and very hoppy with a resiny pine and grapefruit flavor and bittering hoppy character throughout. A pretty good double IPA but could be a little sweeter.

Bottle… O-Town Christmas Gathering ‘07… Mostly clear, golden ale with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Excellent retention. The aroma provides notes of wood, herbs, evergreen, orange peel and earthy hops. Medium to full-bodied and coarse with soft carbonation. Moderately bitter, lightly sweet and mildly acidic with a dash of salt. Finishes gently tart and Sahara dry. Bottle courtesy of kmweaver!

22oz bottle, tasted alongside Founders Harvest Ale. 20-30% opaque honey orange colored body with a billowy off-white head. Fresh, snappy hop nose of dry pine and soft but clean yeast. Initial flavors of crisp resinous pine and citrus turn more full on the back, with the pine turning a little bit towards cedar, but with wet hop leaf throughout. Flavorful, fresh and lively - a different harvest ale than Founders, but equally good.

Bomber. Marvelous floral hop aroma. Hazy light amber color with a minimal white head. Medium in body with a near creamy carbonation. The flavor is floral hop lightly backed by citrus accompanied by unobtrusive caramel. This is very smooth and mellow. The finish is reasonably dry with a nice hop presence. It is extremely kind to the mouth, and a pleasure to drink.
