7.1/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
22 oz. bottle, pours a hazy copper golden with a small white head. Aroma is quite dank, with piney and citrus hops, dank herbal notes, and dry biscuity notes. Flavour is fairly dank, with notes of dank herbal hops, some pine, and biscuity malt. Very dank, with a good balance between malt and hops. Very good.

Amber, thin head. There is an earthy, toasty hop character. Sweetish, with a hint of alcohol, The malts are rich, chewy, a touch toffeeish. The hops are orangey, grapefruity, nice dankness to them. The balance works. There’s a hit of alcohol in the finish. Well-balanced. You can have a pint, but only one.

Draught at Ale Arsenal. Aroma was forward with citrus, mandarin, and tropical flavors. The alcohol is really present here, and there was a lot of residual sugar that just made this a little cloying as I got through the pour.

Grunt fill from Albertsons. Perfect remedy to a long hot day running a yard sale. Orange golden body with small, tight off white head. Orang-y citrus aroma with some piney resinous undertones. Taste brings the hop bitterness forward, with the caramel malts slipping to the background. Bitter, then sweet. Minor citrus notes at the finish. Hard to believe it’s 9.5%.

On draught at the brewpub. The beer pours a clear orange color with a medium fluffy bone white head that diminishes steadily to a film. Strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, hops and malt. Medium to full body with flavors of tropical fruit, dank hops and malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hops aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
