Jul 11, 2005 RBSG 2005... Poured a hazy orange color with a thin, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of tons of citrus hops, spices, and light maple syrup. Taste of crisp orange hops, lots of citrus, light caramel malt, and a touch of alcohol.

Jul 11, 2005 Lightly hazy copper bronze with a well lacing off-white head. Dry, grainy, lightly toasted and hoppy aroma. Body is lightly sweet and caramely with some sticky toffee and a good, but not very potent hoppy balance. Not quite as extreme as some American versions, but a very drinkable double pale ale.

Jul 11, 2005 Hazy brown orange color. Citrusy, hoppy nose with grapefruit and oranges. Mouth starts malty, then hops, then back to the malts, very well balanced. All finishing dry and puckeringly bitter, which was a nice pleasent surprise.

Mar 21, 2005 Amber body, with a creamy white head. Nice hoppy aroma but it has trouble competing with the smoky pub. Pleasantly hoppy with a pleasant floral hoppy aftertaste, not nearly as much bitterness and hops as I hoped for from a double ipa. Alcohol is well concealed if its 8.5%! Nice beer, my numbers seem to rate it a little higher than my memory does. Hope to try it again.
