Mar 9, 2009 Bottle from Josh who flew it in from Charlottesville. Lots of gratitude. Beautiful copper color with a multifinger beige head. Aromas of hop waft from a foot away. It’s resin. Oh yes. Medium plus body with creamy/frothy carbonation. Flavor is fresh, light pine. I’m sure there’s grapefruit rind as well. But the pine is strong enough to remind me of the old Wizard Wick air fresheners. Must be some malt in there, but who cares. OMG this is hoppy. But it’s not excruciatingly bitter in the finish. Or maybe it is. Damn this is immensely great stuff.

Mar 6, 2009 Bottle thanks to machfive55. Pours a clear amber orange with a thick finger of lengthy off white head with lovely cracked glass lacing. Huge orange, grapefruit, and lemon citrus aroma with undertones of herbal hops. Taste is a soft caramel body layered over top with more floral, citrus, and lightly herbal hops. Not much bitterness, very sweet and satisfying.
