This is my second offering from Green Flash, the first being their Barley Wine. I liked, but not loved their Barley Wine so I was excited to see what this had to offer.

A- Somewhat hazy honey, light amber color with a 1 1/2 inch shaving cream like off white head.

S- Citrus, caramel malts, bread, and a little clove.

T- Very sweet, citrus, caramel malts, bread, with a little Belgian spice ( clove and coriander), slight alcohol finish.

M- Medium bodied, with a dry finish in your mouth. It leaves your mouth a little beaten up...but it is worth it.

D- Fairly drinkable. The sweetness can be a little intense at times, but overall this beer is very good and a few can be had in a night. The alcohol will get to you before the taste does.

Enjoyed this bomber bottle out of a Beligan Tulip glass.

A: Pours a cloudy orangish-copper hue with a white, 4-finger, frothy head that slowly dissipates leaving a great trail and solid lace.

S: Sweet tangerine fruity aroma.

T: Sweet tangerine and spicy flavor with a good hop profile. Ends of the sweet fruity side of bitter.

M: Medium body and medium carbonation.

O: This is one of the combination beers that actually works. Complex flavors and aromas.

Glowing slightly hazed yellow body. Loads of cascading lace down to the bottom.

Smells of banana and apple esters with a little spice and a splash of grapefruit.

The taste has more of the banana and apple, citrus, a little clove, then finishes with a burnt plastic that lingers.

Mouthfeel is full and a little sticky. Good carbonation.

Overall I thought it was a very good beer but for the off-putting aftertaste of plastic. The aroma and other flavors were very good.
