Pale golden in color with a hoppy fruity aroma. Big hop flavor up front complemented by medium body and hoppyness mid-pallet. Finishes with a characteristic lingering bitterness.

Appearance - 4.5
Pours a massive 2 1/2 fingers of off-white head. The mountain of head is thick and sticks around for a good portion of the beer. It leave some soapy lacing as it slowly makes it's descent. The beer is a hazy golden orange with some active carbonation.
Aroma - 3.0
Don't get a whole lot from the nose, mostly the perfume of earthy hops.
Mouthfeel - 3.5
Light-medium in body with some sharp carbonation, maybe just a tad too much.
Taste - 4.0
Some biscuit like malts and a small sweetness make up the first half of the beer. The second half is dominated by hops. It starts out with a mild orange flavor followed by some earthy hops which produces a pretty dry, bitter finish. A little bit of sweetness lingers on your tongue after you swallow.
Overall - 4.0
Some pretty decent flavor considering the small amount of ingredients used in making this beer. The bottle also states n chemicals, additives, or preservatives were used. Another good one from Rogue, worth a try if you can find some.
