Pours slightly hazy amber with small off-white head. Clear aroma of fruit, citrus and hops. Bitter, hoppy flavour, with round, fruity notes and touches of malt and grass. Lingering, bitter and rough aftertaste. Nice.

Pours a hazy dark orange appearance with a very thin tan head. Kind of oxidized / cardboard, caramel / bready malty, dull herbal hoppy nose with a bit of citrus. Kind of chewy and bready flavor. Tangerine and citrus fruit flavor. Some booze on the finish. A bit goopy. Eh.

On tap at Gourmet Haus. Pours a hazy orange with moderate white head that lasted a few minutes before leaving a color. Strong citrus and pine aroma follows through to the flavor as well, with the malt more pronounced in the flavor than aroma. Moderate bitterness leads to a well balanced beer.

Tap@Faction. Pours clear orange with a small off-white head that dissipates quickly with some lacing. Very light aroma, mostly citrus, grapefruit, pine. Light sweet, light bitter, some biscuit malts. Not harsh at all. Medium body. Decent, not great.
