| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 29, 2008 22 oz bomber. Hazy orange brew with a thick white head. Aroma is very hoppy with loads of orange peel, sweet honeyed malt and a kiss of spiciness. Soft light caramel and a bit of light resin as well. Light breadiness and a fairly light crackery character. Flavour is very hoppy, sweet orange and grapefruit over a soft bready maltiness. The bitterness is surprisingly subdued given how much hop character there is in the aroma and flavour. A little bit of apricot and peach fruitiness in addition to the citrusy character. Malts are quite nice with a bit of vienna or munich malt to add some complexity. Finishes sweetish but not cloying. A lovely IIPA.
