Jun 9, 2005 2005 version. Cage and cork. Deep orange colour with low carbonation. Big oaky, orange aroma, herbal and spicey (cinnamon, coriander), fruity (grapes, strawberry), dusty yeast. Flavour is super sweet, hoeny, pale malt, coriander, cherry and grape flavour. Light spice underneath the orange citrus and honey flavours. Sweet, but not cloying. This could stand to dry out for a few years and it will probably gain another 2% ABV during that time, but it good right now with lots of room to get better.

Jun 4, 2005 On tap at Blind Tiger in NYC. Pours a cloudy reddish color, which is similar to the taste - almost medicinal yet very sweet. Aroma is of tart summer fruits. Alcohol present throughout. Overall a great beer that should only be imbibed once in a night. Almost too sweet to be enjoyable.

May 25, 2005 bottle thanks to JoeEC5 at the jimmack invitational, drank this as my celebration brew from whooping their butts at quoits. a nice spicy aroma, bits of citrus, orange, corriander, and hints of yeast coming off a cloudy dark orange body with a small amount of white head. the flavor carried the spices and the orange before giving way to a sweet caramel backing. the finish was totally clean with no hint of the ABV, and the body was smooth and pretty well rounded for this style. this was a 2005 bottle, and i can only imagine what this stuff will do with some time in the bottle.

May 20, 2005 Small head, body is glowing amber. Aroma is cider, spices, and sugar. Full, round mouthfeel, slightly sticky. Taste is sweet and candied up front, gets a touch of sourness and spices, then goes out on a long bitter and herbal finish.

May 17, 2005 An unclear orange beer with a small white head. The aroma is sweet spicy combined with notes of yeast. The flavor is very sweet - and again with strong notes of yeast and spices, leading to a very dry end.
