16oz can from Bert’s Citrus, onion, pine, and earth aromas abound, but damn thats bitter with and alcohol burn. Almost could stand a bit more malt for balance.

From sampler pack: pours black with a nice creamy head. Aroma is vanilla and cocoa. Taste is a little sweet but not too muchly. There be some tasty roast but again nothing that is too overwhelming. Basically this is a nicely balanced stout that hides it true size a little.

Variety pack: pours orange with a white head. Aroma is citrus, pine, and resin. Taste is sweet, then bitter and citrusy. Finish is bitter too and goes into a hoppy aftertaste. Not extreme, but packs some punch. Good.

Can at my brothers place grabbed some quick sixers to share. Pours dusty burnt orange small quick dissipating head. Nose is light florals and toast. Tastes of some like orange, sweet malt, mild pine hopping, cereal, some flowers. Fine palate.

Can shared in Hoboken. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. Nice aroma with ripening, juicy fruits, some orange and other citrus, pale bread. Medium sweet flavor with a bit of booze-soaked citrus fruits, orange, mango, melon, some husky grains, grassy and woody bitterness. Full bodied with average carbonation. Hot finish with more ripe fruits, orange, some fusel alcohols, more wood, grass, pine. Not bad, if a bit heavy.

16 oz. can thanks to Rob B. The color is mostly clear gold in an overly carbonated can. Had to wait about 5 minutes just to get a full pint, the can also gushed a bit. Aroma is ok, muted citrus and weak pine, malt.
The flavor shows more sweet rather than a blast of hops. The backbone of sweet malt nearly wipes out the hop flavors. Light mango, cantaloupes, mild pine notes that becomes real bitter in the finish. I’m confused because it has a very sweet flavor of malts and honey that gets aggressive in the finals part of the sip. Seems with this much sweetness that wouldn’t be possible but it is.

16oz can I grabbed at the Warren Store. Pours a clear, dark gold with some cloudy, ringing white head. Nose is resinous, a little chivey, lemon, grapefruit, soap, pine. Flavor is sweet but also punchy, honey, lemon, pine, grapefruit, mild chive, tangerine, some garlic scape. Full bodied, sticky, resinous finish.

Citrus and lots of malt. Amber pour with good head and ratings. Medium bitter finish with some sweetness. Good balance, and nice malt. Bottle.
