12 oz can. The pour is fully hazy yellow golden with a thick 1.5 inch foamy head that is lasting. The aroma is tangerine, clementine and a general oat maltiness. The taste is bright citrus, a bit of tangerine fruit, peel bitterness, and finishes thinner with more of the citrus. The palate is light bodied with an unfiltered mouth feel, then gets a bit watery on the finish. Easy drinking session.

Pours black with a big, slowly fading tan head. It smells of dark roast malt, piney hops, and coffee. The flavor is intense with bitterness from the heavy hops and the dark roast character. There’s pine and coffee, a full body, and lingering roast and hops in the finish. Excellent.

Pours clear gold with a small white head. It smells of raspberries, grainy malt, and peppers. The flavor is of sweet grainy malt, raspberries, and mildly hot spices. Mildly bitter finish. Eh. Not bad.

Pours hazy pale yellow with a two finger quickly fading head. The aroma is very citrusy. The flavor is malty and citrusy with mild to moderate bitterness. It’s alright. Not sure I’d call this a double as to me it’s not that intense, but the brewery did.

Notes from March 2011 Poured into a Sam Adams less then perfect pint glass. Tight inch of off-white head. Light orange-amber body. Touch of chill haze. Minimal lace. Smell is intense with pine resin, harsh citrus rind, & sticky sweet/doughy malt. I like it, but it doesn't seem like it's going to be dry enough at first. Taste is much more balanced. Sweet, gritty grain & interesting citrus upfront. Dry/sharp, piny middle. Lingering herbage. Boozy, astringent finish. Toasty grain feel. Not too thick or sweet. Difficult alcohol. Maybe one more. ;)

Pours a deep copper color with a large head that leaves some lacing as it fades. The aroma is heavy with hops, piney with some tropical fruit. The flavor is aggressively bitter with piney and somewhat fruity hops. There’s a big malt backbone that adds sweetness and a long resinous hop finish. Alcohol is buried. Excellent.
