Pour clear amber with off white head. Aromas of grapefruit. Flavors of citrus, grapefruit mostly, and some malt character. Average at best. Almost like a pale ale.

Bottle. Pours a copper color with a thick frothy white head that lasts. The aroma is very hoppy and grapefruit. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is initially bitter but has a sweet finish. A good IPA from Flying Dog.

Bottle. Borwn beer with a strong head. The aroma is very fruity and dry, and the flavour is heavily malty and very dry. Overall a really nice beer.

Clear orange-amber beer; huge, very dense & fine head, slightly amberish coloured. Superb hoppy nose, C-hops, orange marmalade, pickles. Hops, oranges, sweet-hoppy, enfin, all the classics. But. My first and main remark is: this is a good beer. With bottle refermentation, it might be GREAT. THEN WHY ISNβT IT? Medium bodied, slickness, hop oils on the aftertaste. See the above remark: stop pasteurizing!

Bottle, 4.7%. Very nice caramelly hop aroma. sweet and nice. Clear dark golden colour. Small white head. Good flavour, a bit like the aroma, not sweet but caramelly. Distinct bitterness, but good and clean.

Moderately weak malty grapefruit aroma thatβs a little yeasty. Dark orange color, with a thick ivory head, nice lacing. Buttery cherry taste with a nice cilantro finish. Above average on the beer scale, fair on the craft beer scale. Too buttery.

12 fl oz bottle, thanks to faroeviking. Pours hazy orange with a creamy and dense head. Dry hoppy and fruity aroma. Flavour is dry hoppy with a bit of liqource-like note. Very dry finish, hoppy and slight spiced.

Bottle marked at 6.4% ABV. Reddish-gold colour with a decent white head. Pleasant orange and spice hop aroma. Flavour had some pine and citrus hop balanced by chewy malt, with a decent dry finish. Very enjoyable.
