On tap at Brewer’s on the Bay. Aroma of citrus hops and lots of caramel. Pours a clear red with an off-white head. Taste leans towards the caramel, with nice support from the hops, mostly citrus.

Pours perfectly with a nice brown-orange head that sticks around for a lengthy period of time on top of a very attractive foggy brown body. Aroma is strong hoppiness with a hint of malts, simple but appetizing. Flavour is a highly tasty hops and malt mix with a dry finish; however I found the palate a little too watery. Lots of good things going on in this beer, it’s getting close to perfection.

Medium, yellow head over veiled, lively carbonated foxy-amber ale. Piney & fruity USA hops; caramelsyrup, fruitcake, bit of ureum. Smells sweet-syrupy, thick. Taste is quite bitter; resiny with a dry oatwafer background, rather than fruity and cake. MF is less full-bodied and resinous than the nose suggested. Hopoils abundant, with an oily, gluey resinflavour and -feel. Orangejam, orangerind, walnutpeel, but also streaks of spirit: apricotbrandy or even Mandarine Napoléon, if much less sweet. Well-carbonated. Bit unidimensional, but it could make the base of a truly great Barley Wine.

650 ml bottle. Pours a red/mahogany with medium to full head. Aromas of malts and tropical fruit. Thick flavors of grapefruit and pine/spruce with nice malty background. Quite nice.

Refrigerated brown bomber set on the counter for a bit and then poured into a snifter. Pours crimson with medium off-white head, and little lacing. Medium body, medium carbonation, and herbal hop aroma. Taste is deep herbal hops, grassy hops, and bitter hop finish. I would say this is closer to an amber ale than an IPA, not my thing. I would guess the bottle was a little past its prime.

650ml bottle. Minimally cloudy amber colour with average, firm, frothy to creamy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, off-white head. Hop aroma has a resinous touch and cautious orange and tangerine notes. Taste is initially bitter hoppy with a resinous note and an unspecific fruity touch, later explicit pineapple notes.

10/III/13 - 1Pt. 6Fl. Oz. bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent) @ home - BB: n/a (2013-233) Thanks to Erwin for sharing the bottle!

Clear orange to amber beer, small creamy off-white head, unstable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: dry, bit dusty, some caramel, a bit off. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty bitter, grassy hops, some vomit (no, really!), bit sourish. Aftertaste: bitter bile, very bitter, grassy. Not super. Maybe it's not fresh anymore? But it had just hit the shelves, so...
