From old tasting notes. Bright Amber orange color. Creamy white head. Sweet toasted malt aroma. Zesty toasted malt flavor.mcaramel-like underpinnings highlight a crisp, well rounded brew. Could use a bit more body.

From old tasting notes. Clear reddish brown color. Creamy tan head. Sweet roasted malt nose. Zesty, bittersweet malt flavor. Interesting dry hoppy finish with a hint of sweetness. Bitter hop aftertaste. Good flavor. Lacks any Rich maltiness, but is full bodied.

From old tasting notes. Amber red color with a creamy tan head. Fragrant toasted malt aroma. Bittersweet toasted malt flavor is subtle yet tasty. Good balance and flavor make this a quality brew. It still has a way to go to compare with the bocks of Germany.

Many thanks to my SecretSanta nimbleprop for this bottle! Black currant in the nose, wood. Fantastic deep Bourbon malty beginning. Deep, round and dry. Intense round and malty with lots of smooth wood. Bourbon without sweetness. Fresh wood, deep. Intense without being too alcoholic. Great intense deep malty Bourbon aftertaste. Fascinating!

Can: Hazy gold with a thick, off-white head. Orange, grain, caramel aroma. Taste is orange/butterscotch.....pretty tangy at first.....orange-candy-like. It’s different....and really not bad after the initial "twang" to it.

Can. Orange, butterscotch malt, and straw aroma. Golden yellow with large white head. Moderately sweet tangy orange, butterscotch/caramel malt, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Decent body. Kind of grew on me.

Can. Ultra hazy orange. Toasted malts, light sweetness, some background crispy hops. Relatively boring and yet I found it to be a decent, serviceable fest beer.

Can thanks to jsquire: Poured a hazy coppery orange with huge off white head. Aroma is piney citrus hops and malt. The taste reminds of what sucking on a pine tree air freshener would most likely be and some malts at the end.
