Jan 25, 2008 Bottle: Pours deep copper with a thin tan head. Big chewy aroma. Sticky and sweet cascade citruses, caramel, toasted vanilla and a cookie hint. Fairly creamy texture, but light to medium bodied. The flavor has some sweet caramel malt giving body, there’s also a mild toasted/dried/crackery malt presence (almost seems like British malts) The hops aren’t really fruity, just somewhat resinous and has a slightly inky bitter finish. Kinda sweet, but tasty and somewhat balanced.

Jan 3, 2008 12oz bottle from swoopjones. Aroma of pure, brash, slightly catty Cascade hops. Pine resin, bitter orange rind, toffee and some fusel alcohol. Pours rich copper with bright orange highlights. Flavor is dry and bitter lacking the complexity I was hoping for after the rich aroma. Firm on the tongue finishing moderately dry.

Jan 1, 2008 Deep bronze pour with a one finger cap on top. While the nose is fresh and pleasant with orange and grapefruit, I don’t get the hop whallop that the name implies. A caramel and butterscotch back helps balance the fruity and citrusy body. This is real drinkable and very balanced - I just want more hops.

Dec 19, 2007 A nice hoppy red bomb. Balanced flavor even with all those hops. Aroma of red, and maybe some other colors. Pine, citrus and lots of hops with some malts aside. Taste is flavorful similar to aroma and pretty good averall.
