Poured slightly hazy. Bright burgundy/red in color and topped with a full head of creamy foam. A wall of sticky foam coated the entire top half of the glass. The aroma yields a beautifully sweet floral-like hoppiness, with strawberries, orange liqueur and even a hint of lavender. The taste has notes of bittersweet black cherries, with a sweet malt body. Tangy, nice body, full flavored and the finish makes you smack your lips for more. One I would surely revisit.

Had this one a while ago and will have another for sure next chance I get.

Nice sweet smooth start with hints of a caramel flavour but it finished with a bitter slight smokey flavour. Nothing overpowering at all just a nice touch as far as I'm concerned.

I had it from a Key Keg so it may have poured slightly "flatter" than a traditional keg.

Overall a great pint that I look forward to trying again.

From Jim's, no BB.

Looks the biz on the pour, with a lovely fluffy two to three finger head, but after that all downhill.

Aromas are malt mainly, but the taste is just, erm, not nice. Dry hopped I guess means a dry dry tasting beer, which just does not suit this palate. It's thin and watery, too.

How else can you score a beer, if you genuinely do not actually like the taste??.

Maybe it's the yeast...

Appearance: A hazy, orange red.
Smell: Honey. Smokey.
Taste: Odd, almost hollow, except for the bitter aftertaste that hits the back of the tongue.
Mouthfeel: --

With each drink the smell of honey took over the taste but subsided once the bitter settled in on the back of the tongue. It's an interesting brew and worth a try; not one of the best of Rogue's lineup. Enjoyable, but I wouldn't get it again.

Pours a translucent red with good head and lacing.

Smell is the typical American Amber honey-on-buttered-toast character. And that trademark honeycomb. Perhaps some tropical hop behind that.

Taste is the same. Watery and not too bitter.

Decent, but I feel I want more aroma hops, more body and more bittering hops.

I feel this is superseded even by local takes on the style (Wayward, Riverside).
