Bomber bottle. Good pour of semi-creamy head and cloudy orange liquid, decent small bubbles coming up. Sharp hops aroma leaning toward vegetable but not quite, a bit nutty, some malt, crisp, pale ale like, no alcohol noticed. Flavour is big sharp sour hops, some vegetable, lingering chewy leaf hops with slight sweetness. Big oiliness hides any alcohol. A little bit too bitter for my tastes but the nine percent is invisible so it's got that going for it.

Bottle from Legacy LRS
Hazy amber color. Aroma of sweat, smoke, resins. Dry, with caramel flavor, grainy, then resiny and piney hops, but also unpleasant chicory bitterness in the final.
Ok but messy.

This has a golden colour. Thin head. There is some dankish hops, Spicy, with a whack of big pale malts. Ok, but definitely an old fashioned example, without any thing particularly bright on the hops.

650mL bottle, pours a hazy golden orange with a small off-white head. Aroma bringns out candied orange peel, citrus hops, pine needles and earthy notes. Flavour tastes like there were pine needles soaked in this, with earthy and piney hops, bitter pine, and biscuity malt. Bitter pine needles galore. Not well-made, but at least there's no diacetyl. Not good.
