12 FL OZ. bottle
Served in a tulip glass

This beer pours a deep shade of amber, almost copper, in color with burnt orange highlights. It is topped with 3-4 inches of tan head that leaves some nice lacing rings.

I get some citrus and spice, similar to rye, along with some bready malt.

It starts out a little sweet. The I taste some citrus. After that I taste some pine. The finish is quite bitter.

Medium to thin mouthfeel

This is a pretty good beer. It started out a little bitter on my palate, but I got used to it.

Poured into a Thirsty Monk snifter. Label says MFG 08/01/16.

A- Pours a dark amber color with a 1/2 inch beige head that retains well before becoming a thick ring around the edge of the glass and a mostly full sheet of sheer surface foam. Semi-resilient lacing leaves small clots behind.

S- Earthy hop aroma with a substantial malt backing that's slightly sweet. Also an afterthought of citrus. Hint of cookie dough.

T- Equal parts citrusy hop flavor, malt sweetness and assertive bitterness. Has a flavor profile I like to describe as aggressively balanced since the ABV is so well-hidden but the taste is still so intense.

M- Sharp from the hops with medium carbonation and a body leaning toward the fuller side.

O- Quite good. It's obviously starting to drop off a bit since it's approaching the two-month mark but still has a good amount of life in it.

A - orange glow, big fluffy head that clings and sticks after each sip and clings for days.

S - Huge nose on this - tropical fruit, juicy fruit, mango, citrus hops.

T - Fruity hop forward, citrus, passion fruit, mango, nicely balanced and smooth creamy mouth feel.

O - Really a solid offering from Oddside - huge nose on this and one of the better looking beers I've had in a long while.
