Bottle... Poured amber with a white head. Nice, sharp hop aroma. The beer has nice cracker, grain-like malts and a big hop explosion. Really tasty and full of flavor. Prominent citrus notes and a satisfying bitterness.

Oct 7, 2008 Shared bottle with Timfoolery. Smelled of hoppy goodness and even tasted pretty good at first, but the palate just fell apart. Left an odd bitter taste in my mouth. Decent brew for the genre, but not a standout.

Oct 5, 2008 On tap at the San Diego Brewing Company. Rich orange in color with a milky, off white head. Aroma of fruit, orange/citrus, caramel and earth. Flavor of toffee and caramel up front, with some grassy/earthy/citrus hopping in the finish. Decently bitter for the style. Lingering flavor. A solid, but probably average, version of the style.

Oct 1, 2008 (22oz. bottle) Pours a lightly hazy orange body with a small off-white head. Aroma of citrus, biscuit, and peach. Flavor of caramel malt and hops (pine, floral, grassy) with a bitter finish.

Sep 26, 2008 22oz bottle shared courtesy of Josh. Poured a medium and clear amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of fruitness, floral, and some caramel. Tastes of the same fruitiness, caramel, floral, and some pine.

Sep 25, 2008 Thanks to Josh for sharing this one. Pours a lightly hazy amber with golden notes and a medium creamy/bubbly off white head. Aroma was floral, pine, mixed citrus, bready, caramel and a light nuttiness. Flavor was practically a match of the same.
