Jan 15, 2005 Pours a clear copper bronze with a rocky, dense off-white head with nice lacing. Very fresh hoppy aroma has a mild touch of sweet caramel malt underneath. Body starts with a sweet caramel maltiness turning more bitter toward a crisp and balanced hoppy finish. A nice APA, although, it could honestly be an IPA and from a can nonetheless.

Apr 19, 2006 From a tin can, as it behoves Orange-amber, slight (chill) haze; no head. Very hoppy, grapey & grapefruit nose, very dry, fruity &lively at the same time. Rather soft mellow bitterness, again fruity. No new aftertaste, but the hoppy bitterness lingers on exceptionally long. Slightly burning but non-aggressive MF; with a mineral water quality. Medium body. Very good pale ale, in no way inhibited by the can, agreed.

Feb 5, 2007 Fully golden colour with a beige head. Malty, caramel sweet aroma with a hoppy, citric fruityness and a light pine note. Hoppy, bitter and fruity flavor with a light malty sweetness. Light sweet and hoppy bitter finish.

Oct 19, 2009 Tinned, Pasteurised, 355ml courtesy of Casey (Doppelganger). Gold to amber with white head. Simply surprising, a beer in a can that tastes this fresh, it cannot be, not when you have been brought up with the dross that is UK tinned beer. This is bright, freshly hoppy, grassy, orange citric and very pleasant. Dry and refreshing. Many thanks Casey for this and for showing me how a tinned beer could be.

Nov 1, 2005 The Lure:
Leafy, resinous hops gleefully bounce off the caramel malt trampoline. Oranges splatter all around, this is as jovial as it gets.
The Festivities:
Marvelous C-hops are balanced out by the suave caramel sweetness. A full mouthfeel presents the bountiful flavors, and a dry, resinous bitterness finishes the job. A superbly-brewed quaffer every way you look at it.
Transcendence:
A proud and efficient employee.

Aug 19, 2007 It’s nice to see more of these brews making their way into CT. Pours copper with a white creamy head. Smells of pine, citrus, some tea, hints of pepper. Tastes of grapefruit, some sweet malt and bitter on the finish. I had some higher expectations for this.

Nov 30, 2006 Canned. Orange/amber coloured. Unclear. Off white head. Herbs, pine, citrus and light fruits in the nose. Flavour has this citric, hebal pine thing as well. Very nice balance and quite nice hopscharacter. Medim bodied. Has a medium bitter end again nicely balanced by some sweetness. Good one, that would easily get in my fridge as a "hverdagsøl", was it available in the Kingdom of Denmark.

Aug 19, 2006 Can. Copper coloured beer with a thich creamy off-white head. Great looking beer. Aroma is of sweet orangey hops, spicy and earthy with a great balance of sweet caramel and toasted malt flavour in the back. Flavour shows lots of sweet biscuity malts, some cookie dough, light hop resin, fruit and spice with a kiss of pine as well. Well-balanced tasty beer.
