On draft at Lebanese Taverna in Arlington VA. Pours a clear amber with an off white head. Nose is more malt than hop. Flavors of sweet malt with a hint of hops. Smooth and mellow mouthfeel with a mildly bitter finish.

Orange and rosehip nose, heavy on the latter. Clear amber, medium head, good lacing. Orange peel flavor. Thin, low carbonation. Nice flavor, but after four beers from this brewer, three have been too thin. I can live with that, but it bears mentioning at this point.

Served on draft at the brewery. A 4% hop bomb... nice concept. Pours a slightly hazed copper color with a medium head. Good head retention and lacing. Strong hop aroma with notes of peach, pineapple, citrus, resin and melon. Taste of citrus and resiny hops. Lacking on malt character but still well balanced and very nice. Fairly dry. Medium bodied.
