Feb 12, 2008 Pours a rick amber color with a small whit head. Aroma is citrus hops. Very well balanced flavor of sweet malts and hops. Not bad at all. Lots of hop flavor without a lot of bitterness? Very strange but good.

Feb 9, 2008 12 oz bottle. Deep amber coloured brew with a thick white head. Aroma is great... bright juicy hop aroma. Grapefruit and lots of spicy sweetness. A lovely caramel/cookie dough malt base with a hint of toast as well. Excellent balance. Tasty sweet citrus hops over a fresh biscuity malt base. Moderate bitterness, but loads of hop flavour.

Feb 2, 2008 Ehhh...just didn’t do it for me. Pour was dark amber, little head or lacing. The flavor was heavy grapefruit with some caramel/toffee sweetness that seemed out of place. I just didn’t like it. Got even sweeter and more grapefruity as it warmed and the two flavors just didn’t "go" in my opinion.

Feb 2, 2008 Pours a nice dark amber color w/ a slight head. Light hoppy aroma, had a light taste with a bit of a pine in the after taste. Very drinkable, will definitely have again.
