look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5

Poured from a 220z bomber into a Duvel glass. Color was hazy orangey copper with high creamy foam and lacing.

Smell was a sweet & spice - malt, hops, and something else wafting off the top I couldnt quite place.

Taste is wonderful, the malt starts you off - there are hops throughout and they are spicier than I am used to - not overpowering, but enough to kick you around a bit and wake you up. At times a slightly sour taste comes through. Active carbonation in the mouth, and the taste holds up great.

22oz down I could go back for more - that is drinkability.

22oz bomber into pint glass

A - a slightly cloudy dark orange/almost brown beer. only about an inch of head, which dissipates quickly. decent amount of lacing

S - bready/grainy malts, slight hops, and some yeast characteristics as well. not a lot going on in the smell

T - malt forward but a nice kick from the hops (citrus i think), which wasnt there in the smell. dried fruits permeate throughout, finishes very smooth

M - Medium bodied which is surprising given the booze content. well carbonated

Overall - A very nice offering from Rogue, not surprising this is their pride and joy and most heavily distributed. smooth drinking, good flavors. only complaint is from the nose, which is a minor complaint
