Bottle at Andys. Poured a hazy orange in color with a nice fluffy white head. Citrusy hoppy malty aroma. Orange, grapefruity and piney notes. Fruity malty flavor. Caramel cherry and floral notes. Finish is bitter. Full bodied. Very drinkable. Very nice beer.

Thanks to HogTownHarry for trading this with me :-) Rating number 900. Appearance: Hazy orange with a decent sized creamy off white head. Aroma: Mouthwatering - pineapple, juicy fruit, citrus, hops hops hops, magic. Flavour: Bitter hops, some caramel, nice tingly feeling on the tongue, pineapple and cherries waving from behind. The alcohol is practically non existent. Tremendous beer, so delicious. So summery.

Source: 22 oz bottle purchased at Chuck’s in Bowling Green.
Glass: Poured into my Tripel Karmeliet glass.
Appearance: Poured a hazy gold color with a one finger white head.
Aroma: Very citrusy. Grapefruit dominates, but oranges are present. Not much else.
Flavor: Sweetish malt base with an awesome citrus hop finish. Lingering bitter finish.
Palate: Medium/full body with solid carbonation and a sticky mouthfeel.
Overall: Another excellent offering from Southern Tier. I have yet to be disappointed..

22 oz bottle from By the Bottle in Vancouver, WA. Pours out a clear golden yellow with a medium sized white head with some solid lacing. Aroma is heavy on citrus hops, some grapefruit and orange and a light bit of floral. Flavor is slighty more malty than I’d like, but has a lot of delicious citrus and pine hops present as well. Extremely easy drinking as well.

22oz bottle @ VV tasting, Odense. Pours cloudy copper with a small white head and lacings. Nose is fresh hops - lemon grass, pine and citrus. Taste is full of grapefruity hops & orange. Warmth from alcohol. Dry, bitter and crisp. Heavy - and I like it.

Nice dark golden red with a fluffy head. Big aroma of sweet caramel malt and lots of hops. Nice creamy mouthfeel, tastes like citrus and pine hops with enough sweetness to balance it out. A little yeasty and bresady too, pretty good.

Amber with a thin white head. Aroma has a strong piney hoppiness, light caramel, alcohol. Taste is a mild hoppiness, nice malty sweetness, light dried fruit, alcohol. Really nice beer, more along the lines of ASA.

Slightly hazy dark golden with a lasting white head. Citrus and grassy hops dominate the aroma, with alcohol and caramel. Dry, grassy hops and grainy malt flavur, with too much alcohol.
