Bottle: reasonable 330mL brown bottle, cheeky label. Not a bad package.
Appearance: pours a red-hued light mahogany colour with a two fingered, bubbly head that settles to a half-centimetre film. Good retention, not much in the way of lacing.
Aroma: sweet aroma, with some sweet malts, ripe fruit and orange blossom.
Taste: the sweet malt flavours come through stronger than the aroma - I identified as caramel malts. Those orange blossom flavours are definitely just as strong however. A nice accompaniment.
Aftertaste: flavours dissipate somewhat, replaced by a touch of bitterness from the floral and citrus hops.
Mouth feel: light-to-medium body, fairly high carbonation. The carbonation is a little bit overdone.
Overall: a nice, if a little unsophisticated, orange-infused pale ale. At AU$50 a case (2012), a very decent price for such a good quality ale. I am impressed.

Pours amber/ruby with a small head.
Nose shows orange blossom, faint bready malt and soft red fruit.
Better flavours, with hefty caramel and bready malt alongside soft floral and fruity hops followed by a plain mild bitterness.
Carbonation is much too high.

Drank from my Duvel Tulip
A - Pours a redish copper colour with a two fingered frothy white head that dissipates slightly and retains well.
S - Get some sweet caramel aromas with a little hint of raspberry. However overall just fairly average.
T - Sweet malts upfront with the caramel coming through and gave me a slightly bitter tangy finish.
M - Medium bodied with medium carbonation
O - A fairly bland beer that really lacks flavour and leaves an unpleasant aftertaste. Not recommended.

I agree with the previous review that it is difficult to see how this could be defined as an APA.
Pours with a good solid head and a rich red colour. Although it almost seems too red to be completely natural. I will be happy to be proven wrong on this though.
The smell is quite sweet with some rich caramels coming through.
Taste is sweet as well. Caramels are there with also some roast nut flavours. Sweet flavours linger without getting any hop bitterness to balances out the taste.
Medium body and medium to light carbonation. Easy to drink.

No idea why this is listed as an APA , but the first review/ advertisment must be responsible.
This is a good drinking beer.The red hued beverage has a good 2 finger head and looks quality.
The beer is well balanced with some complex carbohydrate qualities .Sweeet undertones with a clean finish

Two years in development and carefully brewed using a complex combination of specialty malts to achieve the rich red colour, balanced with a bold level of aromatic hops.
