Jun 22, 2007 22oz bomber purchased at Windy City Liquor in El Cajon. Had when it first came out and my palate was not developed and didn’t like it. Shared with my pal David. Pours yellow orange with a stable puffy 2 finger head, off white in color. Nose is light and fresh with a bit of hops not as much as I expected. Taste is hoppy and surprsingly light and not very bitter. Has a full mouth feel though. Good beer overall. Not as good as 10 by any means.

Oct 20, 2008 Tasting at mcbackus 10/19. Very glad to have tried this. Amber pour, medium mosty white head. I smell some yeast, fruit, and some juicy hops. Flavor is very smooth with a good balance of malts and hops. Wheat makes this creamy and nice. Good beer.

Feb 26, 2006 Thin golden orange under a thick light bubble head. Good pale ale hop aroma. Light body. Nicely hopped. Almost champagne-like mixed with an IPA. Better than an under-malted IPA but as an over-hopped wheat it isn’t as nice as a good IPA. Kind of a mixed style.

Feb 3, 2006 I thought I was drinking a simple, but good, pale ale. There is not much to this light orange beer besides the hops in the aroma and the bitter hops in the flavor. The 8th was better.

Oct 21, 2005 Bottle. Sweet peach/apricot/cherry and hops aroma. Golden orange color with small head. Sweet apricot and bubblegum flavor initially fading into a strong bitter hops finish. Alcohol content apparent but masked by the hops.

Sep 8, 2005 Bottle. Amber beer with a nice off-white head. Citrus hop aroma - dry hopped with Cascade? There’s a bit of spiciness to the flavor, more citrus hops, and some sweetness backing it all up. Some fruitiness (pears and others) to go with a bit of graininess. Wheat not really present, and there’s some alcohol presence. I think the wheat clashes and leads to grain astringency, and just a strange finish that I can’t put my finger on. It’s like playdough meets grains of paradise. I’ll skip it for another of their IPAs.

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.

Aug 13, 2008 On tap. Pours with a clearish golden body with hardly any head. Aroma is a bit of hops and a little bit of wheat. Taste is of ripe peaches and light hops, and possibly some mint. Lightly fizzy on the mouth and a bit on the dry side of things.
