| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 23, 2008 Corked bottle. Big and rich travelin’ lager, nice harmonious over hopping, orange marmalade, "lively" malt, complex caramel and piney hop aftertaste, I love it and really truly wish I could afford more!

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 17, 2008 750 mL bottle purchased at Liquor Max in Loveland, CO. Pours hazy orange with a large, creamy and frothy white head, somewhat lasting with good lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (hay, straw, meal, grain), heavy hops (flowers, grass, perfume), heavy yeast (sweat, earth) with notes of grapes, apple, pear, and sweet corn. Medium bodied, creamy and sticky texture, lively carbonation, and a bitter finish. Average duration, light sweetness, moderate acidity and bitterness.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 17, 2008 Updated: Mar 18, 2008750 ml. brown champagne bottle. No freshness date seen. Caged & corked with a fake wax cork. Poured out a dark, hazy, yellow color, with a sticky white head. Aromas are of piney hops, citrus rinds, sweet malts, some spices. Flavors are piney hops, sweet malts, sulfurous yeast. Medium mouthfeel, decent body. Alcohol is dangerously well hidden. Hell of a beer overall. Blom (390), Odense, Denmark
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 17, 2008 Golden with a frothy head. Aroma of pine, grass and citrus, and a forcefull hoppy flavour that lacks some contrast from the malt to make connections to a pilsner.

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Mar 16, 2008 Poured 24 karat with a massive 3-inch head that slowly receded but left mountains of foam on the side of the glass. Aroma is grassy and extremely floral (more so than any beer I can remember)...similar to what one would experience in an orange grove. Flavor is crisp and fruity...with obvious tangerine, nectarine, and orange. Amazing beer...not sure why others were so harsh in their ratings. nimbleprop (844), SouthWest, Washington, Washington DC, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 15, 2008 Translucent, yellowy brown color with an active, foamy white head that laced the glass. Strong aroma of citrus, hop oils, and slight pine with a hint of grass in the back. Flavor was well balanced, crisp but light malt, citrus and fruity hops, a touch grainy and a touch sugary. Finish is dry and crisp and just a tad syrupy. Very good session beer, I had no problem putting back the whole 750ml. michael-pollack (2652), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 11, 2008 750ml Bottle: Sweet aroma. Smells of floral hops, candy, and Red Bull. Very hoppy aroma. Poured gold in color with a huge, creamy, off-white head that lasted throughout. Slightly hazy. Sparkling. Excellent lacing. Flavor is medium sweet and medium to heavily bitter. Tastes of floral hops, fruit, Smarties, and more hops. Medium body. Creamy, then dry texture. Average carbonation. Dry, floral hop finish. Sweetness is well balanced by the bitter hops. A nice brew.
