Bottle shared by Allen, thanks! Pours a near clear golden orange with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of bitter citrus with a hint of resin and a bread backbone. Flavor has same bitter citrus with a good amount of grass and a light grain.

Bottle shared by Duchammer: Poured a golden to copper color with a whispery white head. Aroma is fruity Belgian yeast phenols and sweet bubble gum. Nice balanced mixed fruit and hops, little spice in the end...coriander possibly.

Sample at GABF 10/04/2014, thanks to my BIL for assistance with note-taking. Clear dark amber color with a medium thin white head that dissipates quickly. Short strings of lace. Aroma of malt, chocolate and peppercorn. Medium body with flavors of malt, sweet cocoa and peppercorns. The finish is sweet malt and peppercorn. Pretty good all around.

Bottle, ABC Store. Murky dun colour. Floral aroma. Taste has that, some phenols and yeastiness. It’s a little muddled, messy, not without good elements (the orchard fruit-alcohol dynamic is pretty classic) but overall a mess.

Hazy light amber. Big ginger aroma. Dry palate, very gingery. Light biscuit malt. Ok, but very strong ginger isn’t balanced by a whole lot.

Slightly hazy light amber. Big passion fruit nose and taste. Mild, slightly biscuity malts. Fairly light, but a good mellow APA/ISA with a big fruit nose.

Amber with just a touch of haze. Thin head. Crystal, sweet crackery malt, almost with a bit of molasses. Sweet, crystal, touch of fruity hop. Good balance, dash of alcohol.

Slightly hazy, aroma is not all that bright, maybe on the dank side. The taste is mellow, a little hop spicy, but just ok.

Dark brown. Thin head. Aroma is a bit thin. Coconut and coffee, a bit oily, a little dark sugary malt... Kind of simple

Golden-amber. Aroma is earthy, c-hoppy notes with a bit of crystal or munich malt. Earthy Liberty Ale character - maybe with a bit more malt - but balanced and clean.
