Dec 7, 2008 Bottle. Been nursing this one for the past 3 hours at least. And not because its good. Because, well, I just dont really enjoy drinking it. The aroma is hot and hoppy, with mild bready, estery notes. In the mouth this is sweet, syrupy, rather light, and very lacking in carbonation. Little head to speak of, pretty much no bubbles rising. It wasnt flat/bad, it just is not a very carbonated beer. Completely filtered, for some reason. I have no idea how they intend for this to age for 4 years, it will be dead in two.

Dec 7, 2008 This brew is thick, heavily carbonated and has a bittersweet flavor. Despite all the hoppiness, the beer doesnt leave a bitter aftertaste. It pours a light golden color with a small head. I wouldnt proclaim the brew to be epic, but is certainly a fine beer worth a try if you see it this year.

Dec 7, 2008 Updated: Jan 13, 2009Pours bright golden with a big fluffy off-white head. Aroma of citrus, hop resins, peach, mango, and pears. Taste is sweet citrus, mango, melons, and spicy yeast. Full bodied with lush carbonation and a slightly resinous aftertaste. Fairly hefty and aggressive, with a big hop finish.

Dec 5, 2008 Thanks for sharing, Mark. Bright gold body with a lightly off white head. Medicinal with some herbs and orange peels. The taste was sweet with some orange peels and herbs. There was also some black pepper spice. Decent, but far from exciting.
