Apr 18, 2008 Great deep amber color with small whitish head. Decent lacing. Aroma is really nice.
Spicy hop and some sweet malt. Flavor comes through with a malty start and blended hop presence. But not too much. Decent balance. Lingering hop finish. A good beer.

Apr 18, 2008 Attractive orange-brown color with a foamy white head that leaves some nice lacing. Citrusy aroma complimented by apricots and pine needles. Toasty caramel malts balance out the lovely hop bitterness. Grapefruit and peaches come through in the dry bitter finish.

Apr 18, 2008 Orangish amber with a tiny white head. Hoppy nose, piney and grapefruity. Flavor is crisp hops under some sweetish caramel malt. Very nice.

Apr 17, 2008 Very good beer here. Pours a copper color with a creamy off-white head. Big aroma of malt and hops. Tasty honey and hop flavors. Perfect balance of malt sweetness and hop bitterness. Fantastic mouthfeel. Delicious.

Apr 16, 2008 Pours a beautiful copper/rust color with a tall frothy yellowish tan head. Aroma hits you with hops and malts simultaneously! Sweet caramel apple like malts with a nice sweet pine hop. Wow, very flavorful beer with an amazingly smooth palate. Honey and caramel initial flavors just melt into a lightly floral hop finish. Truly the best beer from a can.

Apr 15, 2008 Can. Pours clear amber with generous offwhite head, lacing from top to bottom of glass. Aroma of hops, pine and citrus, with a strong caramel note as well. taste is well balanced -- big malt up front, some caramel but not overly sweet, with a piney, citrusey hop bite coming on in the middle that fades into a dry, hop bitterness that sits on the palate. Mouthfeel is quite oily, a little chewy. Nice beer.

Apr 15, 2008 Tasted 4/11/08. 12oz Can. Hazy with an amber hue. Moldy off-white head. Big nose. Big hops. Nice hop profile. Notes of grassy piney resinous citrus hops. Runs the gammit of hops. Full bodied with sweet malts. Big hops and mild effwervescence. Hop palate is just as dymanic. Piney and grapefruit. Dry, but not too dry. Sticky with a nice rolling palate start to finish. Mild alcohol note. Solid. Nice bitterness. Mild cinnamon and ginger note. Well done!

Apr 13, 2008 Can via sloth/slob..the three toed cretin.
My second oskar blues product since the gate installation. Pours a cloudy gold with a dense rocky head that sluffs off itself into the beer....weird, like a small avalanche of head. Sticky and red just like the can promised. no idle boast there. The bite in the rounded body reeks of the dry hop processand is well executed. Skip the ten fidy and have another one of these. I had defined this as an Double IPA before reading this but what the hey. Dont bite your tounge....this beer will do it for you.
