Jun 28, 2007 This specimen pours a golden amber color w/ a modest, semi creamy froth that settles to a spattered pancake. Lacing is respectable. Nice and sticky w/ a partial canopy and a full ring. Aromas of full on gloppy malted caramel and flaming grapefruit. Full nectar w/ soft and creamy residual effers. It’s a malt bomb w/ a blistering hop profile to balance. You get your classic flavors of sweet malted caramel, leather, asprin, grapefruit, and charred citrus rind. Theres a mild sweetness that is enjoyable. Not real complex but very well balanced and the alcohol is hidden like a land mine. A strong flavored brew w/ a very generous disposition. One thing to mention is the sludge in the bottle. It’s thick. The finish is long w/ lingering citrus rind bittering. Like an asprin burn. Highly recommended.

Apr 30, 2007 Profound indeed. Sampled from a growler at DLD thanks to the generous sharer. Hazy orange color with a small head. Wonderful nose here, grapefruit, carmel, citrus, and pine bouncing between my elated nostrils. The flavor is similar with some earthiness and a nice balance between the hops and carmel malt. Great beer.

Bitter flavor, Big grapefruit punch, some sweet maltiness. Medium body, lite creamy mouthfeel, Bitter finish. This one is right up my alley, the aroma covered alot of ground.

Aug 4, 2009 The aroma about solidified that I was going to like this from the start, with citrusy hops that lead into the full fresh cone-like aroma. The flavor is fresh and hoppy with enough malt to keep it nice. The flavor hints slightly at alcohol and I’d like a little less body to bump it up in score.
