Cloudy orange 1 finger head. Smells like an old IPA. good mouthfeel. the old hops have started to go cheesy. this has been kept cold since buying it but it’s just not good. The ABV is borderline barleywine in sweetness.

Location: 22 oz bottle from Buy Rite, 5/21/15
Aroma: The aroma is heavily sweet malt and over ripened fruit, with some caramel and alcohol
Appearance: It pours a clear orange color with a small beige head that leaves a ring of light lace
Flavor: The flavor strongly malty, a little sweet, slightly off, with an unpleasant/bitter finish
Palate: This one has a half decent mouthfeel, medium bodied, light heat, and a mid-dry finish
Overall Impression: There's just something not quite right throughout this one. I don't know what happened, but it seems like something went a little wrong somewhere along the line. The more of the bottle I drank the less I liked it.

Pours gold into a tulip. Bright white frothy head with excellent retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Sweet candy corn and bubblegum aromas. Thick with gumball front to back and into the hot gumball finish. Thanks for the gumball, Mickey!
