Apr 10, 2003 Updated: Nov 10, 2003Thick and cloudy orange-amber. Very inviting hoppy nose. More aromatically hopped than bitterly hopped. Hops are juicy, citric and fruity; non-traditional in that way, but nevertheless tasty. Malts are not too heavy, but definitely pronounced; malty (cookie) and a little sweet; some light bread flavors, with a yeasty note. Hops are all over the place; up my nose, swirling in my saliva and residing on the backsides of my tongue. With time, residual bitterness does build, but not too much. Flavor/aroma hops take up much of the charge. Rather tasty brew. I could drink a lot of this. Cask (Newport): Smooth, rich and malty with a heavy bitterness. Even still, rather clean. Piney hops. Very tasty.

Nov 9, 2001 Nice cloudy orange hue, citrusy hop aroma, quenching citrus/pine hop flavours, clean finish, smooth and farily well-rounded for being so hop accented.

Jan 23, 2006 650 mL bottle, cellar temp. Pours deep copper with huge foamy off-white head, slighlty hazy with some particles floating around, i forgot about the sediment while pouring.. oh well..no biggie. Piney hops, some orange zest and caramelly malt aroma. Hop dominant flavor with a bitter grapefruit-like finish. Slightly toasty caramel undertones. Great beer, but tasting blind, I’d probably say it was an IPA, as was mentioned before.

Oct 23, 2001 Very smooth through and through. Not as bitter as one would think...but don’t be fooled, it is bitter. Better on the warmer side.

Aug 12, 2002 (650ml)Clear, light copper colored. Beautiful white head and soapy lace. Nose of toasty malt and huge citrusy hops. Almost medium bodied ,toasty malt,earthy flavors mixes nicely the grapefruity hoppiness. The cascade and hallertaus really stand out and make for a distinctive flavor. Very quaffable and of the highest quality. I love this brewery.........

Mar 25, 2007 (Bottled, 0.65l) Medium-hazy with a small, firm head. Flowery, very pleasant and distinctive aroma of fresh hops, hay and cows. Slightly sweet, grainy-malty, very aromatic-hoppy flavor. Medium-bodied, quite carbonated, but smooth and slicky palate. A very pleasant and balanced brew, but this is really more like an IPA than a bitter.

Jan 8, 2008 I have had this one a number of times but kept thinking I had already rated it. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a vivid amber color with a large soapy yellow-white head. The aroma was sweet and fruity with a note of apricot. The flavor was fruity, tangy and bitter with an apricot element underneath. The finish was long and fruity.
