Jan 31, 2009 On tap at Cole’s Rare Beer Fest in Buffalo. Great hoppy juicy aroma. Orange pour, decent white head. Strong taste - all juicy hops balanced with some delicious medium malt. No citrus here, all resin and I loved it.

Jan 30, 2009 Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Pretty strong citrus and pine hop aroma with a little caramel malts. Citrus and pine hops, resin, and a little bit of caramel malts on this one. Pretty impressed with this brew.

Jan 28, 2009 2009-01-24. Crisp orange-amber body with a modest beige head. (3+) Hoppy aroma is inviting, green herbaceous hops. Pleasant bitterness throughout, modest resin and herbal hops, mild citrus. Average plus palate. I normally like more citrus and less of the green hoppy notes but this was really nice, and super drinkable. More please. Tap at Coles Rare Beer Fest, Buffalo

Bottle. Pours a clear orange amber with a medium sized off white head comprised of small tight bubbles. Pine and citrus hops are abundant on the nose with hints of pineapple. Starts off slightly sweet with a medium thick mouthfeel. Leads into an excellent grapefruit and quinine bitter finish. Really good stuff.

Jan 28, 2009 Updated: Mar 1, 2009Almost my favorite beer of all-time. Wonderful hop aroma and even better flavorful. Very resiny. Amazingly drinkable for a 7.5 beer. Truly a magnificent beer worthy of its reputation.

Jan 26, 2009 On tap at the Publick House in Brookline, also fresh bottle, but rating from tap. Body is a transparent orange with a tall tight pure white head. Nose is full of fresh spring flowers, wet grass and pine needles. Pallate is interesting to say the least, the front end is still malty and mild but the back is all hops and puckering bitterness. The flavor is mostly a mix of floral notes with some citrus peel, simple syrup, and grapefruit. One of the best hoppy east coast brews I have had to date.
