Crystal clear straw color with very little head. Very pils-like aroma with a lot of grassy Saaz hop aroma up front. The taste is a bit too bitter for the malt base and everything just seems a bit off-kilter. An interesting brew, but not really my thing.

Sep 4, 2008 Taste: 9/8 Bottle(?date) Looks: Golden body, White top. Aroma: Lots of caramel malt. Taste: Grain and caramel malt. Full bodied. A bit overdone (Don’t know if it is too many hops and malt choices or what.) Full bodied and a little metallic. Bitter finish.OK

Sep 1, 2008 Orange/amber pour, very bright. Fluffy off-white head and spotty lace. Alcohol and caramel malts on the nose. Hoppy citrus flavors with a lack of malt.

Aug 31, 2008 22oz bottle. light orange, rocky,white head. Aroma of deep caramel, some cotton candy, hints of spicy rye. Herbal hop aroma is on the lighter side. Wonderful aroma. Clean caramel malt. Flavor is a full caramel malt, robust raw honey, and maybe a radish or some other vegatable. radish is just too spicy, a root veg of some kind, can not put a finger on it. Bold herbal bitterness lingers for a while. finishes with a bit of grapefruit towards the end. Could use a bit of balance, although still glad I’ve tried it.

Aug 31, 2008 Pours a very pale amber into a shaker. Sickly white head. Alcohol and caramel aromas. Bitter out of the gate. No malt balance. Almost painful, sour astringency.

Aug 30, 2008 pours a semi-hazy orange with a small off-white head, good lacing.
smell is malt, some grains, hint of corn, some citrus, a little caramel.
taste is thick, hoppy, slight grapefruit, malt in the back, touch of caramel, some citrus, touch of spice, nice bitter ending.
overall a very nice refreshing beer.
