Tap@ Popeye, Oct 2009, assuming it is this one based on earlier ratings. Butterscotch and cascade aroma. Pretty amber, low layering head. Heavy Caramel, molassis, just about balanced by the hops. Medium oily body, some fattynes gets relieved. Caramel retronasal, pine on the tongue afterwards.

Thanks to jdubFL for this treat. The can pours deep gold with copper hues and white head. The aroma is sweet with malts, sweet rose pedals and berry like fruitiness followed by faint roasted maltiness. The taste is spicy hops with mild flavor hops in the background as well as echoes of pine hops and citrus. There’s a thin strata of malty to faintly roasty malts deep in the background.

Can at Beerwarming Party. Pours a mostly clear gold with a medium, white head. Sweet, citrus hop aroma with some malts. Sweet flavor, too, with light honey and fruity hops. Medium in body with average carbonation. Finishes rather bitter with light earth and grass. Not bad.

Cheers to jdubfl for sharing this can. golden color, white head. aroma and flavors, sweet and malty with underlying bitter citrus hop profile. Tasty beer but found it to be a tad too sweet and on the malt side for an IPA.
