theisti (1637), Leawood, Kansas, USA Nov 29, 2007 22 oz. bottle shared by Gregis. Pour is slightly hazy orange gold with a one inch head that fades quickly to pretty much nothing. Aroma is pineapple citrus with some rounded malt sweetness and a wheat background. Taste is nice, fairly muted with the nice citrus hop bitterness, malt and wheat backbone. Body has a nice Barley Wine mouth feel. Wheat throughout, really get the wheat body in the finish. Thanks for sharing this one Greg! sneagrams3 (1704), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Nov 12, 2007 The Dan Journal #133. Tasted 11/8/07. 22oz bomber. Golden murky with a honey tint. Tight white head. Bright citrus nose. Sugary sweet. Citrus and sugary caramel. Big burn. Sticky and delicious. johnadam2002 (529), Hainesport, New Jersey, USA Nov 2, 2007 Poured hazy orange with fluffy white head. Aroma of citrus and alcohol. Surprising good hop flavor for being 2 years old. Citrus, candy, and wheat hints also present. Harsh alcohol finish but drinkable. shadey (1496), Rochester, New York, USA Nov 1, 2007 22oz bottle. Being that 11th anniversary has been released, I would say this is at least 2 years old. Poured into a brandy snifter the color is a melon orange with a very thin wispy head of white swirls. The aroma is sweet and interesting. There are hops there as well, resiny hops. Intriguing. The flavor is sweet, definitely aged in its smoothness. The wheat character is minor but detectable. The primary flavor is a candy sweetness that is barely cleaned up by the remaining hops. An interesting experiment and a tasty beer. rocbyter (902), Waterbury, Connecticut, USA Oct 21, 2007 Had this on tap at Mugs in Brooklyn. Strong malt and hop aroma. Cloudy pale orange color with a large white head due to the fact that we had the last of the keg, sorry. Creamy start finishing with a piney hop bitterness. A well balance strong ale. Cletus (4999), Connecticut, USA Oct 16, 2007 Pours a hazy amber with a thin white head. Smells of nice sweet citrus, dough, some bananas, lots of resin. Tastes of creamy malt and citrus with some peppery splashes. This is holding up very well! beerbuzzmontreal (2909), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Sep 24, 2007 Pours a hazy orange colo with a thin white head. Good aroma and flavor of citrusy hops with caramel malt and a bitter finish. The body is light and liquorous with soft carbonation. brianjames1 (322), Northridge, California, USA Sep 15, 2007 22oz bottle. Hazy amber color with rich white head. Citrusy aroma, and a nice bittnerness to it. Not bad.
