A full bodied, dark golden ale with a thick, off-white head, enticing citrus aroma and unique swirl of tropical fruit esters produced in fermentation. Backed by a precise balance of strong malt presence and biting hop bitterness, this creamy blend of rich flavors leads to a smooth, hoppy finish, and the torment of knowing that when this bottle is empty, you will long to…

Bottle from a great trader! Pours a near clear golden amber with a white head that dissipates nearly completely. Aroma is sweet with wheat, grain and some backing caramel. Flavor is similarly sweet with grains and caramel and has a bit of light fruit underlying.

Bomber from the old Whole Foods Market Charlottesville, meaning I’ve had this one at least 9 months. Pours a hazy orange color with a thin frothy tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of toffee, toasted malts and citrus. The taste is toffee, caramel, toasted malts, citrus, berries and a hoppy finish. Medium bodied with faint oxidation notes... more than it should have at this point.

Location: 22 oz bottle from jcos, 3/7/11

Aroma: The nose is fairly sweet, candied sugar, caramel, spice, some citrus fruits, and toffee
Appearance: Pours a crystal clear reddish-orange color with a small bubbly white head, some lace
Flavor: This one tastes fairly sweet with a nice spice feel, not a ton of bitterness
Palate: It has a medium body, some tingle to the mouthfeel, smooth, slightly sticky, a little bit of heat
Overall Impression: Thanks Justin! This is a pretty interesting beer, and I'm glad DuClaw is starting to bottle more of their stuff. I liked this one, it is well-made and different then a lot of what is out there. I'm glad I got to try it.

Peach and marshmallow creme aroma. Clear orange, medium head, little retention. Fruity peach and lemongrass. Medium bodied, tangy, very palatable. Wheat bread finish. Alcohol well concealed. Superb balance and texture. Lacks wheat character. Drinks more like a lightly hoppped DIPA, but quite delicious. This is my first Duclaw, but I’m liking what I’m seeing so far.
