12 oz. bottle. Had to grab something to get the awful Shiner Leicht out of my palate. This saves me with a nice whiff of grapefruit hops as soon as I pop the cap. Pours a cloudy IPA orange with a rocky head, dwindling with a bit of lace. Taste actually starts with thick, creamy malts, close to a caramel chew. Cheek to cheek with our favorite American hops; the 3Cβs plus a puckery smack of Amarillos, I think. Like gargling with Pine-Sol, but in a good way. Keeps its balance all the way down. Yay.

12 oz bottle from MaltOMeal. Pour is hazed golden, settles nicely with a 1 1/2 inch rocky white head. Falls with pretty lacing. Aroma of faint citrus hops, bright bitterness. Taste is grassy orange citrus hops, slight bitter, mineral toast maltiness behind that, more grassy bitterness in the finish. Nice balance. Palate is medium, grassy dry, mouth coating, tingling carbonation. Nice one, thanks Bill.

Pours amber into a shaker. Off-white head with excellent retention leaves slight sheets as it recedes to coat surface. Pine and resin aromas. Crisp and well-balanced. Lasting pine and resin finish. Nice one.

12 oz. bottle from Whole Foods Market Charlottesville. Golden orange pour with a medium head, good retention and lacing. A sweet malty aroma with leafy hop notes. Very malty IPA, sweet, with lots of bitter hop notes in the finish. Slightly sticky and full bodied.

(Bottle, Akkurat, Stockholm, 30 July 2008) Pale amber colour with huge, white head leaving lots of lacing. Malty, fruity nose with notes of grassy, citrussy hops and a distant hint of smoke. Fruity, malty taste with bready malt and a grassy, dry finish with distinct notes of citrussy hops. Notes of sweetness. Very nice balance. Very nice beer.

Aroma is pineapple, light grain, and some caramel. Cloudy amber pour with nice carbonation, thick yellow head, good lace. Solid grapefruit flavor, dry, and bitter. Weak grapefruit peel finish. Surprisingly good, but kind of unnaturally so.

Pours with a white, frothy head covereing a clear gold body. Ultra floral, hoppy aroma with a decent amout of yeast in the aroma. Taste isnβt too bitter, but not too much taste. It is actually a bit watery for 6%.
