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.

Dec 13, 2009 Bottle @ The Headkeeper. Pours a hazy yellow, nice frothy, slightly off-white head, some lacing. Aroma is subdued hops. Hops dominate the flavor profile with some touches of peach and lemon showing through on the backend, touch of yeast. Finish is bitter and slightly sweet.

Dec 6, 2009 Bottle courtesy of bret27. Pours golden with an orange tinge and a wet, frothy, white head. Aroma is bright and tropical, with very mild cattiness (Simcoe?), oranges, and herbs. Flavor really isn’t as hoppy as the aroma, some citrus notes but not much else. There is still a medium bitterness that lingers awhile. Body is light but not thin, carbonation is soft, finish is dry.
