Feb 17, 2003 Bottled, thanks hopsrus!!
Pours reddish amber and rather lively. Aroma of fruit and pine needles. Salty and malty with crystal malt profile and a lingering hoppy, bitter finish.

Feb 14, 2003 Updated: Feb 19, 2003Wow! This is an impressive ale. As soon as you pop the cap on this one, you know it's going to be good. And it delivers. Impressive looking, smooth mellow flavor with a very rounded hop bitterness. Excellent. Just a tiny notch below Brutal Bitter.

Feb 11, 2003 Nice aroma of hops, citric and sweet. Good foam head on this beer. Hits you with hops then finish with a much stronger malt taste. Quite balanced and something very drinkable.

Feb 10, 2003 Murky orange brown. . . Sugary banana malt aroma with light hops in the background. Great hop malt balance is noticed immediately, followed by lucsious pears. A surprising beer from an unassuming bottle.

Feb 8, 2003 A pretty dark amber color chuck full of stuff to make it rather hazy. The aroma is really nice. Hops provide plenty of citrus fruit and perfume. Malts are present and give caramel and toffee hints.

Jan 30, 2003 Dark amber color. Nutty malt nose. Chewy textures with same nutty flavors. Balanced well with hops in the end. Very good and worth finding.

Jan 10, 2003 Updated: May 8, 2003Great orange colour, fantastic hoppy smell. Great mixture of a traditional ESB and an IPA! Nizy hazy orange colour and a great hoppy/bittering aroma. Fantastic taste which doesn't linger too long and doesn't overpower the palate, but still tastes great for quite a while. This is a re-rate as I've now had this beer on tap and in a bottle.
