May 31, 2008 Bottle courtesy tpd975. Pours a slightly hazy copper with a one finger off-white head. Aroma of sweet malt, caramel, slightly nutty, and a hint of floral hops. Taste is the same as aroma with hints of toasted malt and tons of hops. Medium moutheel with a moderate amount of bitterness. Good.

May 22, 2008 Bottle (22oz) shared with HogTownHarry, tupalev & garthicus -- courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a clear orange-amber with a massive foamy white head. Dry, musty yeasty aroma -- I suspect it’s slightly infected or slightly past it’s due date. Flavour: Meh, tastes old and bland -- dry, watery and yeasty with a bit of sourness. Average bodied. Overly carbonated. Not very good.

May 16, 2008 Bomber, thanks to Bob! Poured crystal-clear medium amber with a tall, thick, sticky cap of beige head.. quite lovely. The aroma picked up soft, dusty yeast notes disseminated through caramel, toffee, and light fruity sweetness.. a touch of brown sugar.. came off entirely pleasant. The flavor had toffee sweetness primarily with lesser caramel and some floral notes.. finished tacky with toffee and honey sweetness. Light-medium bodied with high, creamy carbonation.. almost felt nitrogen-injected.. OK feel for the beer. This was solid.

May 14, 2008 Bottle shared with Garthicus, Hogtown Harry, and Blankboy, courtesy of Harry. Musty dry aroma. Decent orange pour, huge gushing foamy white head. Taste is very dry, a tad sour and watery. Not too much here, the body is way too foamy to really let out any falvours. Past its prime likely.

May 13, 2008 Updated: May 14, 2008Bottle (22oz). Shared with blankboy, garthicus and tupalev, my bottle via trade with Oakbluff. Hmmm - quite a near gusher on opening (I was warned, opened it slowly, still foamed), cloudy orange pour, huge frothy off-white head. Dry, peppery yeasty aroma, slightly metallic, light, vague caramel malt. A bit of fruit to the taste, sour, dry, peppery, stale - long stale aftertaste. Average, stinging mouthfeel, dry, seemed to attack my tongue a bit. Didn’t like it - california common? Frankly, I think it might have been a bit infected.

May 13, 2008 HogTownHarrys bottle, shared with Harry, Paul and Jeff: Huge gushing bottle, took Harry a couple of mins to open with care. Poured with a HUGE head. Golden body with a (now small after the storm) white head. Some flecks of yeast (?) in there. Aroma: Sour and musty, some banana too. Flavour, bitter, carbonated, quite a sour finish, can’t say I like it.

May 2, 2008 Bottle, pours a hazy orange with yellowish white head. Aroma of light floral hops and citrus. Flavor is more of the same with a nice, smooth, bitter hop tone. Nothing outstanding, but a very drinkable session beer.
