A-Poured into a pint glass this beer is a big white, sticky foamy head atop a hazy orange with golden hues.
S-sweet and boozy. Hops have disappeared. Smells aged. Don't see a date on the bottle.
T-sweet and boozy.
M-high carbonation. Plenty of malt body with a bitter finish.
O-probably not fair to rate this beer as I think it's gone to hell but so it goes

Poured a juicy, orange-amber color with a thin layer of white head. The beer has light coming through, but is it not entirely see through. Aroma is like a triple IPA: it smells quite boozy and it has a noticeable malt presence. It smells almost overwhelmingly sweet, but then again, this is technically an IPL. The taste definitely feels a lot like the aroma. It's got a nice alcohol burn and it is really quite sweet for an IPL. I honestly can't tell if the flavors are coming from the malts or the hops, but it has some caramel/molasses sweetness. The mouth is thick and bordering on syrupy. It's a bit of a strange beer. I can't quite tell what it's trying to be. Overall, it is sweet, syrupy, and boozy. Not what I expected.

Bottle to goblet. Look, Clear gold pour. Medium white head. Aroma is hops, citrus, touch of earthy, leafy, pine goodness. Taste. Is mosaic, pine, a little soapy, but smooth. I’ve had better mosaics, but they are my favorite, so a mediocre mosaic is still delicious for me.

This beer is retired and it seems like it has been for awhile,there are many on shelves here in GSO.Pours into a becker a hazed honey tinged golden with a great looking blooming almost two finger head atop.A big sack of citrus zest hits in the nose,just big lemon oils!Damn the flavors are great,very citric but not in a wimpy way,a hefty lightly sweet maltiness holds up well the big hops,even a tinge of toasted wheat in the finish.If this beer is no longer brewed it's a shame,this is fantastic!

Very good beer although I think the beer would have been better had the bottle been fresher as the hops didn't seem so fresh. Appearance was a huge fluffy head. Aroma is mostly malt, only a bit of hop. Flavor is mostly malt, some hop bitter and only a little hop flavor. Nice bitter/sweet balance with just enough carbonic tang to complete the picture. Very easy drinking beer.
