Draft pour at Novemberfest 2014. Poured a dark golden orange color with a small white head. Aroma was plenty of resin pine notes, some grassy notes. Light hops. Flavor was bitter hops, pine, herbal. Some booze comes through.

Can pours a clear orange with some creamy, white head. Nose has a lot of orange peel and pine, some candy, some soap. Flavor is sweet, candy, honey, orange, pine, soap, a little herbal. Full bodied, bitter finish. Finishes a little tannic too.

Reviewed from notes. Thank you, Haley for the can.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a slightly hazy burnt orange color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within about a minute, light speckled lacing stuck around the glass nicely.
The smell started off with a big blast of grapefruit, orange peel and pine that led to a somewhat resinous behavior to the aroma.
The taste took the citrus flavors to town and amplified the pine a bit.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a slick resinous aftertaste that led to the same kind of finish.
Overall, this was a very good offering that I wouldn’t mind having again.

Growler at Brewdown. Pours dark brown with tan head. Nose and taste of pine, caramel malt, peach and citrus. Medium body.

22oz bottle-pours gold with an offwhite head. Aroma is pine, some light/medium malt-caramel. Taste is pine/resin/orange hops with some bite, 2nd light/medium malt-caramel.

Bottle. Hazy golden brown color, large white head with good retention. Nice pine and floral aroma. Taste is bitter tropical fruit and pine resin. Not bad.

Sampled on draft at the brewery on 7/15/11. Pours a clear copper color with a large creamy offwhite head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of sweet toasted malts, butterscotch and earthy hops. The taste is bitter earthy, resiny hops, sweet malts and butterscotch. Medium bodied.

Original rating 4/6/2011 Draft: Orange peel aroma overtaken by prominent gym sock smell. Clear rose colored, thin yellow head. Smooth, but thin. Flavor of cherries, floral mix of rosehip and lillies. A little hotter than I like. Drinks like an imperial red without the northwest hops one finds in the good imperial reds that are available. Original rating: 2/3/5/1/10=2.1 4/27/2012 Bottle re-rate: Dandelion, marshmallow peep, and Tang nose. Hazy amber, thin head. Whole orange, subtle grapefruit peel, and vague floral hints. Medium body, significant bitterness but tolerable. This beer is completely different from its initial offering. New and improved!
