Bottle: The aroma is loaded with pineapple and some citrus. It pours a slightly hazy orange with a small creamy white head. The flavor starts with moderate pineapple and citrus. The finish has a hint of orange peel and faint sourness. Medium bodies with a soft mouthfeel. Overall it’s a solid beer, but Old Ale? No way.

Mar 11, 2009 Bottle from Pizza Port Bottle Shop. Pours a clear golden color with low carbonation and a light white ring of head. Aroma is buttery diacetyl with lots of light malts and candy sugar. Flavor is very sweet with more malt, really reminding me of a thick and cloying Tripel. Some tones of caramel, toffee and pear on the finish. Pronounced note of English ale yeast lasts with each sip. Not too bad.

Feb 26, 2009 Cask at Stone. Hazy orange color. Big fluffy head shrinks to solid lace. Huge ring around the glass. Sweet nose. Caramel to fruit. Hints of sourness. Taste is big. Smooth and sweet caramel. Thick and chewy. Lace absolutly destroys the glass. Bitter finish.
