Mar 8, 2008 Bottle. Golden clear colour with a huge head. Aroma of centenial hops very hoppy with notes of ananas and citrus. Bitter flavour of hops, very nice endeed. But I need some sweetness in this one.

Feb 23, 2008 Bomber, thanks to Nathan! Poured clear medium (perhaps slightly deeper) golden with a short, creamy cap of off-white head. The aroma was bright, green, and strong, with pine and oranges rising above all else.. pale malts back it up, but don’t provide much character.. I like the use of oranges in here. The flavor began with tart orange peel and most certainly English-style pale malts.. gave a bit of an old ale appeal.. dry, spicy middle with more pale and some bready malts.. orange zest and light sourness on the finish.. not bad components, but just not too enjoyable. Medium-bodied, warm, and spicy on the palate with low-to-moderate carbonation.. a bit slick.. warm, bitter and spicy orangey finish. This was alright, but not an upper-echelon IIPA.

Feb 17, 2008 Wow, very surprised by this one.
Tons of hops still in this one. Lots of sweet citrus hops and some dull bitterness, like orange rinds- not harsh in any way.
I need a fresh bottle of this if this was bottled in the summer.
Very, very solid. In need of a re-rate.

Feb 16, 2008 Bottle.
Clear, bright copper body with a frothy, white, medium head. Very floral aroma has oranges and grapefruit notes. The flavour is chewy with a hard dose of pine and orange along with a bit of alcohol heftiness. Very nice.
Thanks for the bottle, Rudolf!

Feb 3, 2008 kind of heavy for a so-called "summer" beer. Goes down nicely in the winter, though. Excellent quality.

Jan 16, 2008 22 oz bottle as a trade extra from Schroppfy. Pours lightly hazy orange with s a medium off white head. Aroma: Huge centennial hop character: grapefruit, sweet orange, and a light amount of pale/caramel malt character. Taste: alot of citrus, grapefruit, sweet orange, with a nice malt backbone and a sharp bitterness that lingers throughout the finish. Reminds me alot of Stone Ruination. Thanks Mike!

Jan 6, 2008 Big thanks to my secret santa for this one. Pours amber with a thick white head. Bright citrus hops in the nose. Flavor is amazingly hoppy, nice grapefruit and orange flavors, a bit of malt, pine. Slightly oily, lightly carbonated, nice and bitter. This is one fantastic beer.
