Oct 7, 2008 Hazy and rusty orange with a big, froth-filled head that lasted. Inviting orange-cake nose. Very spicy beer. Earthy, wholesome, English-slanted malts had notes of sweet bread, caramel, pumpkin pie, toffee ... along with some curious aromas that made me think of allspice, cinnamon and nutmeg. Bitterness was a bit mild, IMO, but it was there. Possibly even a faint element of earthy smoke or wood. Overall, I thought it was good, but it had some odd things going on that threw me off. Interesting, nonetheless.

Oct 1, 2008 Thanks, bri. Hazy orangish amber with solid head. Really nice mix of bitter hops, smooth malt and more oak presence than I expected. I really love this; not too sweet or syrupy, and the hops really pop out. Drinks very smoothly. Lovely.

Sep 27, 2008 22 oz. bottle courtesy of a trade with yem25. Pours a hazy orange gold with a moderate yellow/white head that lasted through three-quarters of the glass and left very nice window pane lace all the way to the bottom of the glass. Very pleasant aroma of sweet malt, grapefruit, orange and pine. The flavor begins with a hearty dose of sweet malt, followed by some very resinous pine and juicy grapefruit. Bitter at the finish but definitely not overdone. Very tasty and thoroughly enjoyable!

Sep 21, 2008 Bottle: Hazy orange copper pour with relatively no head. Aroma is piney and sweet. Fruity with some caramel. Tastes sweet with citrus and more pine. A bit of caramel followed by more pine and a sort of brash floral finish. Thanks to acknud.

Sep 20, 2008 Big citrus hoppy nose. Rathr dark, medium redish brown. Thick and swet for the style and lots of bitter and citrus flavor. Long lingering bitter aftertaste. A bit high on th FG but a nice flavorfull strong IPA.
Didn’t taste much British to me.

Sep 16, 2008 Bomber courtesy of StFun. Pours a hazy amber with one finger beige head and nice lacing. Nose is sweet malts and light citrus hops. Taste is caramel upfront, then ripe citrus before a bitter resin finishes it out but it’s not long lasting. I didn’t notice any oak tones. Medium mouth feel. Good beer. Thanks Josh!
