Feb 28, 2009 Bottle, not too cold. Golden amber with white fluffy head that laces up the sides nicely. Wet hoppy aroma turns to fragrant medicinal foresty scent. Flavor piney, a bit muted. Actually very muted, malty. It’s fine but not my favorite Rogue. Bitter on the tongue after a while.

Feb 25, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours copper with a long lasting creamy light tan head. Smells citrusy, sweet, and piney. Tastes piney, grassy, sweet, very citrusy, and slightly bready. Very long and strong bitter aftertaste. Lots of honey sweet malts balance this beer pretty well.

Feb 24, 2009 Pours hazy orange amber with a creamy off white head. Good complex hop aroma. Nice mouthfeel. More hop flavor with a proper malty balance. Well made beer.

Feb 19, 2009 Bottle. Hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma of malt, fruits and hops. The flavour is malty and very hoppy with orange and grapefruit. Medium-bodied, smooth mouthfeel and bitter finish. Very tasty brew.

Feb 16, 2009 (35.5cl bottle) Cloudy, bright orange to amber colour with a firm mid-sized and slightly tanned foamy head. Apricot and lemon fruity and slightly woody hoppy aroma with a mildly sweet malty background. Moderately bitter flavour, medium bodied with a soft carbonation. Solid malty base with lemon- and grape-fruity, slightly woody hoppy notes, lingering into the dry and aromatic (not brutally) bitter finish with licorice and nettle-like spices in the aftertaste (16.II.09).
