Bottle: Great aroma of pineapple and citrus hops with some faint caramel. It pours a slightly hazy amber with a small off-white head that lasts a minute or so and leaves behind sporadic lacing. The flavor starts with some light caramel that gets dominated quickly by citrusy hops and pineapple in the finish. Grapefruit bitterness lingers in the aftertaste for quite some time. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. 5000 (2589), Hardened Liver, Washington, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 15, 2007 Can: Deep copper, fairly clear but with a few floaties about, large frothy sand colored head, very nice lacing. Subtle caramel malts and hop oriented nose, slight citrus peel and tea leaves. Stronger tea and citrus presense on the tongue. Slight malt graininess as it warms, and nearing the backside. Moderate to full body and mouthfeel. Feels fairly smooth. Lingering hop bitterness well after the finish. Not nearly as potent as I would have thought for 100IBUs. Only thing I wished is for it to be a bit more floral and without the subtle grainy bitterness on the finish. Otherwise, quite good. Thanks Joe for the brew!

A randalized or post-hopped version of the beer, I believe. Anyway, it pours to a coppery body with a creamy white head. The aroma is sweet fruity hops, juicy. Very nice. The flavor is sweet, juicy, hoppy. Nice sweet malts. The palate is refreshing, medium bodied. Very very drinkable. Nate (2558), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA

Vibrant, with ozone. Mild amber clear with off-white to tan lacing head. Medium bodied with medium carbonation. Bitter beer with tons of hops. Light sweet malt, but mostly lots of bitter. A bit harsh in the finish, but not too bad. Bockyhorsey (2552), Mesa, Arizona, USA
