patrickfannon (274), Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 5, 2009 Draft. Pours clear amber with a moderate off-white head. Aroma of hops, grapefruit, rye, yeast, bread, and malt. Medium to leght bodied. Clean, smooth mouthfeel. Crisp, airy finish. Good brew. NayTron (31), Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA Nov 4, 2009 Smells of hops, florals and caramel. Hoppy, bitter with some sweetness. Hops lingers on with a nice smoothness. This is a really nice beer. thomson1 (7), Illinois, USA does not count Nov 4, 2009 A hoppy flavor that I have yet to tatse. Pours well, whiffs of sweet dank, finished with a burst of floral flavors. roder60 (1019), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 1, 2009 Pours a clear amber copper color with medium amount of frothy offwhite head. Aroma is a lot of floral hoppiness mixed with a very sweet caramel base. Flavor starts with a slight sticky toffeeish sweetness then drastically shifts into a huge amount of tart bitter citrus hops and a slightly mellowing rye sweet but bitter finish. Finishing dry, but very enjoyable. dwaggs2 (534), Lee’s Summit, Missouri, USA Oct 30, 2009 Bottle. Poured a reddish copper color with a faint white head. Aroma was grass, pine, and floral hops. Flavor was very bitter and hops. Very grood beer. brewski519 (395), Morrisville, North Carolina, USA Oct 29, 2009 From a bottle this brew pours a copper color with a thin white head. Nice aroma of grapefruit, hops, floral and pine. Incredible hoppy bitter taste with plenty of citrus, caramel, pine and floral notes. This brew is hop lovers dream. Which means it ranks right up there for me. This one is a winner. bsp77 (199), Minnesota, USA Oct 29, 2009 Poured from bottle into Nonic Imperial Pint.
Clear orange-red with small head and some lacing. Love the color.
Aroma of very tart grapefruit with some spiciness and slight alcohol. Very noticeable smell.
Very interesting - tart, bitter and spicy, in that order. Definite grapefruit flavor with a bitter and pepper aftertaste. There is a subtle malt balance; the label says it is Belgian and I can see that. I expected a little more noticeable Rye spiciness, but this is one of the strangest, most fascinating beers I have had in awhile, and that definitely counts for something.
Nice smooth medium to full body with moderate carbonation.
One of the most strangely alluring beers I have ever had. Wasn’t sure I liked it at first, but now that I am finishing the glass, I am crushed.
