The beer poured amurky golden brown with a creamy tanm coloured head. The aroma was malty with sweet hints, particularly cherry/grape. The mouthfeel was thin-bodied, and very champagne-like. The flavour was also champagne-like in that is was light malt and fruity spices. -

The beer poured a translucent golden brown with a thin white head and a lot of effervescence. The aroma was citrus, perfume, floral hops, some pine, and a little malt. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, medium carboated, and a dry hoppy finish. The flavour was a wallop of grapefruity hops, a little spice, and a little malt. An excellent beer! -

I tried this beer on June 5, 2008 at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto. This beer poured a slightly hazy yellow with a generous white head. The aroma was slightly wheaty, with some hops and citrus notes. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonation and a dry finish. The flavour had a 'burnt' finish to it, and it was slightly tart on the sides of the tongue. I would not order this beer again. -

I tried this beer on May 26, 2008 at "Smokeless Joe's" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beer poured a translucent reddish-brown colour with a thin white head, that was bubbly. The aroma was malty with some caramel and spicy hints, with a slight hoppy hint. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with medium carbonationn, and a dry bitter finish. The flavour was full of citrusy and grapefruity hoppiness, with a little malty tinge. A very good beer, although I would have liked more of a hoppy aroma.
