Shaker pour @ Standings. Pours with a sticky lacing and a beautiful glowing orange/amber color. Aroma is tea and orange rind hop, which are awesome. However, the malt base comes off too burnt for me and I pick up some vegetal, unlikeable hops back there as well. Flavor has the same thing, mix of good hops with some bad vegetal hops and a burnt malt base. I like it but could use a little more work.

Location: Draft at Jimmy's 43, 7/17/10

Aroma: It has a nose of grapefruit/citrus, some bready malts, caramel, and just a tiny bit of smoke
Appearance: This beer poured into the glass a golden orange color with a white head
Flavor: The taste is well-balanced, a good citrus hop bitterness balanced with some light sweetness
Palate: It is medium bodied and extremely smooth
Overall Impression: This one works really well, I was impressed, I do like some of the beers I have tried from Sixpoint, but I wasn't expecting this level of quality from a Sixpoint one-time offering.

Tap at Meatopia. Pours a cloudy, amber-gold with a fluffy white head. Holds a nice, citrus hop aroma with some sweet, bready malts and earthy undertones. Flavor is mostly sweet, with some ripe, grape-like fruit notes. More maltiness, then earthy, citrusy bitterness. Medium-bodied with lively carbonation and a modestly hoppy finish. Just the faintest hints of smoke, and you’ll only notice if you try. Quite nicely balanced and tasty. Good beer.
