Holy cow, the aroma really jumps out at ya. Big tangerine and orange/citrus notes. Cloudy golden body, white foamy head. Fantastic balance, not too sweet, not too dry. Great hop flavor as well. Really works for what I love about American hops. Cheers!

Dec 24, 2009 12oz bottle via trade. Pours a cloudy bright golden color with a one-finger white head that leaves a little foam on top and good lacing. Aroma is fresh and citrusy with orange, lemon, sweet malt, and even a little funk. Flavor is citric with orange, lemon, and peach, with sweet malt and a little bretty tartness that works well. Not terribly hoppy, but you get some bitterness on the finish. Body is medium-light and palate is extremely crisp. Drinkability is ridiculous. This is a beer you could have many of with no problem at all.

Dec 20, 2009 Bottle. This is a sexy pour, metallic orange with a head that cakes the side of the glass with adhesive foam. The aroma is hard to place -- citrus, for sure, but there’s something else -- peach blossom? -- dandelions? The same mysterious flavor rides into the flavor, an floral component that is unusual, but quite pleasant, with a very spring-like character. (#3772, 12/20/2009)

Dec 14, 2009 Pours a golden orange with a decent white head that fades rather quickly into a thin layer of foam. Plenty of lacing left in the wake of this one. Smells like an English ipa to me. Sweet and fruity aroma of orange, grapefruit, pineapple, and lemon, with some caramel, and a hint of floral hops. The flavor is a little on the sweet side, but full of citrus and tropical fruit, and fresh hops. Slightly woody and herbal. The finish is bitter, but not as much as I had expected. Dense body with mellow carbonation.

Dec 13, 2009 Creamy gold, small ring of a sticky white head. Sweet ripe pineapple nectar aroma. Leafy full goodness. After all this time, the brightness has faded some. Light bodied, tastes of pressed hop juice. Pale malt allows the green plump hop character to be lifted up and presented as a gift. Thanks.
