Dec 4, 2008 Great looking beer with fantastic lacing. Floral and caramel aroma with some citrus. Plenty of bitterness in the taste, but by no means brutally so. The malt and floral notes, along with some white grape flavor, balance this quite well. This is a refreshing beer.

Nov 29, 2008 22oz bottle sampled at the Rogue tasting at Blacklick Wine & Spirits. Color is copper/amber with a big off-white head. Aroma is overtly grapefruit/hop, with a touch of malty sweetness. Flavor is super hoppy with a nice malt balance on the back end. Tasty stuff!

Nov 28, 2008 650 Ml Bottle. Pours quite hazy with a really light marshmallow head. A medium to light body with supporting bitterness. As the pint warms up i get a bit of sweetness coming through but then it snaps of sharp and clean. I didn’t realise this was a 6.2% beer as the bottle didnt have any markings it felt so light bodied i thought it was more like a 3.5% beer, I have no idea why they use the name "Brutal?" still a great beer i really enjoyed.
