Oct 22, 2007 Upon the pour from the 500ml brown bottle, the beer appears a slightly hazy golden amber with a modest off white head that settles quickly, leaving a thin coating of lace upon the glass. Nose has a nice sweet malt aroma, with a pleasant hop flowery tone, citrus like crispness, also a wee bit of bread dough. Front has a delightful malt presence, the hops as spicy as any American IPA, top is medium in feel. Finish has a brisk acidity, the hops pound your taste buds, and the dry aftertaste coats your palate, a “Damn Good” IPA.

Hazy orange color, small white head. Citrusy, bready hoppy (like in APA). Fizzy carbonation. Sweet citrus estery flavor. Estery, a bit sweet in the edges. Nice. Not really a Christmas beer, but good - suprised to see this so low rated here (3.0).

Sep 11, 2007 Pours an amber that is clear with quickly dissipating head. Slightly hopped nose with a sweet edge and caramel influence. Flavor is bitter and sweet at the same time. Feel is slightly touched with bubble. Drinkable, sure. But this bottle cost me $6. For that price I could be getting a Rochefort, a St Bernardus, or a wide array of other home runs. Nice to try, but at this price I would never go back to it.

Jul 25, 2007 Bottle. Pours a clear golden hue. Aroma of cinnamon and nutmeg. Very active carbonation. Flavor of piney hops that leads way to an almost wheat beer taste.

Jul 7, 2007 Updated: Jul 20, 2007Nice aroma.... slight sense of apricot... Pours a nice golden color. Pleasant aftertaste and quite hoppy. I received this in my BOM shipment and am happy with it, despite the poor percentile. I would buy this in the store, but it would not be my first choice.

Jun 10, 2007 Part of a BOM club shipment. Pours a medium amber with a decent sized head. There was a fair amount of lacing sticking around. The scent was of malty with some earthy tones. The flavor was rather bland, without much to write home about. Not a bad winter strong ale, but not one I am going to look for in the stores.
