Brewed by Craftsman Brewing Co.
Style: American Strong Ale
Pasadena, California USA

<!-- i -->Draught at Lucky Baldwins, Pasadena<!-- /i --><!-- br -->Deep ruby brown in color. The taps were quite warm this day so the beer initially poured almost entirely foam which took nearly seven minutes to settle. Rather lactic smelling, almost gueze like. Quite smooth on the palate with a bit of a spicy finish.

Medium orange color. Medium white foamy head. Aroma is fruit, orange and malt. A medium bodied American Strong Ale. Malts are fruity and sweet. Hops are spicy. Orange flavors throughout this beer. Nicely balanced. Very smooth. No alcohol bite at 8%. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

clear golden ale, some bitterness up front with a smooth finish. Lots of orange notes in the flavor throughout

Dark orange beer that builds a huge tan head with the consistency of whipped cream. Citrus nose.Medium body. I get slightly bitter orange coming at me when I taste this. One of the highlights of the fest for me.

Good hoppy & creamy aroma permeating from deep dark bronz..Light tan head..hops are up front with a very nice fruity malt background...Some licorice root w/ fresh mint leaves and a big ass can of Fresh

Herbal, earthy, some mineral saltyness, like an APA gone wild, peppery finish.
