Off white creamy full lasting head. Slightly cloudy amber colour. Aroma is complex with fruity (peach and banana,citrus), floral (rose) and spicy (pepper) notes. Flavor is malty, fruity with floral tones, ending in a moderately fruity finish quickly turning in a bitter one. Medium bodied.

Great beer. Nice orange lemon smell. It’s a little to bitter but not bad. It’s flavour is quite balanced the aftertast lingers a little to much. So far my fav. Flying Dog brew

Orange with a low head. Impressive perfumed aroma of heated soil, citrus, orange, grape and lemon. The flavour is somewhat near perfection and it peaks in a manner that makes me go all jubilant. It is initially bitter, which expands into a brief sweetness, and quicly transcendsinto bitterness again. Yummy!

Very hoppy, citric nose. Pours orange with a creamy head. Flavour is gentle at first - delicate and fresh - and builds a dry hoppy bitterness as you go along. Very light carb which is unexpected but not a bad thing. Finishes very dry with some spice.

Medium amber, slightly hazy pour. Nice aromas, but a little soft. Light, generic hoppiness. Light bodied with a pretty boring finish. Not terrible, but I expected more.

medium gold with slightly off white head. hops, malt and a suggestion of apricots in the aroma. A hit harsh in the body.

Bottle. Much nice. Hazy golden and kinda orange coloured with a medium sized offwhite head. Round and malty with notes of pine, citrus, spices and also kinda floral.

12 fl oz bottle, thanks to faroeviking. Pours hazy orange with a creamy and dense head. Dry hoppy and fruity aroma. Flavour is dry hoppy with a bit of liqource-like note. Very dry finish, hoppy and slight spiced.
