Sample at the taproom. Pours a clear copper-amber color with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily to an outer ring. Strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of tropical fruits, hops and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of piney hops, grapefruit and toasted malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a citrusy hops aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

On tap at Rose and Crown. Fantastic strong aroma of citrus, tropical fruit. Some slight bready malt lends legitimate backbone and support to the overt hops. Golden-orange and clear with a full white head that lingers and laces down the glass. Perfect hop flavor of orange, tropical fruit and all citrus. Finishes semi-dry with a solid bitterness that is not overwhelming. Wonderful beer from Rodger - and the best of the Ales for ALS bunch that I had this season!
