Pours a hazy orange/ medium amber leaving a finger of dry white head. Nose rocks, nice young summer fruits/ citrus. The taste is complex, yet body is light... making me wish I was able to enjoy the killer burger with the brew (instead of at my desk!). The hops are strong and bitter, dry and crisp balanced by the fruit tones and malts. Pwn3d (1052), Manhattan, New York, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Sep 25, 2009 Bottled enjoyed at quality meats with CUJO and RickyRicardo. Burgers are epic here by the way. Pours hazy tangerine, white head atop. Nose is an incredible musky tangerine, hop, and apricot. Taste is same with bitter tang.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 24, 2009 Pours lovely deep golden with an almost orange/pink hue, big, dense, white fluffy head. Aroma is fantastic, really zesty with subtle amount of spice, lots of citrus, classic pink grapefruit, cut grass, some tropical fruits, passion fruit? Lychee? Sweet florals. Flavour is delightful, more citrus, orange zest, lemon, light ginger notes and more ripe pink grapefruit, very clean and crisp with a hint of spice, no sign of the almost 7% abv. Refreshing with the right amount of dryness. Palate is soft and creamy. All finishes very refreshing, pretty dry and spicy. The beer is deceptively complex, it comes across a straight forward refreshing glugger, but spend time with it and the depth keeps increasing, easy going but a great beer.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 20, 2009 On tap at Portland Intl airport.
Aroma: citrus, piney
Flavor: Like the aroma plus caramel malt, lots of piney resinous hop.
Comments: Balanced malt and hop is not the goal here--lives up to its name. I tend to prefer a lot of rogue’s other ales as they do a great job with their malts.
