| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jul 24, 2009 Bottle. Perfect pour - rich in color and full of solid foam. Rich but not overpowering aroma of malt and solid citrus. Drinks with quite the full character, sharp and manly, yet still drinkable. Exceptionally smooth for 11.5%, but clearly a strong ale. Nicely assembled strong ale. Perfect night cap. (#3617, 7/24/2009) iamqueensblvd (223), , Iowa, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 22, 2009 Great cloudy orange pour with an off white head with a little lace.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jul 21, 2009 12 oz. bottle. Pours a slightly hazy amber with a creamy, off-white head. A very hop laden nose. Alcohol, a slight medicinal note, and some sweet malt in the back. Medium carbonation with a medium mouthfeel. You can feel the alcohol in this one. Subdued fruity malt, bitter hops, a herbal note, some malt sweetness, and an alcohol punch on the palate. Medium-long, bitter finish. I found this one to be somewhat out of balance and overall not that great. JoeMcPhee (5010), Jackson Heights, New York, USA

Lots of light pine and a lot of very sweet chewy pale malt. There is a prominent kiss of crystal malt. Chewy and sweet with a soft chewy/spicy hoppiness. The alcohol is quite perceptible and the palate is sticky and quite chewy. Meh... a big, sticky, boozy beer. Jblauvs (597), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

Alluring appearance with an amber-reddish-copper body with a medium, creamy tan head. Fantastic resiny spruce aroma of the american hops with some caramel. Oily body with a ton of powerful but well balanced , intense resiny hop, fine caramel flavor, well hidden alcohol. The strong hop dominates the aftertaste with grapefruit flavor. Strong personality with cogent character. Gusgus (176), Mölndal, Sweden
