Drank this at the Brewery yesterday. I typically get this beer when I go in.
Pours dark red, has a small head that dissipates fast. some nice lacing all the way down
Smell is not too strong, with a little citrus
Taste is hoppy bitterness, a little sweet though not a complete Face Fv(k of hops
Drinkability is high.If you like hoppy beers this is dangerous, for it is easy to drink and it is not an over hopped beer. If you are a hop head you will still be able to taste them it just wont burn your taste buds off instantly! :D

On tap at Main Street Brewery in Corona, CA.
Pours a clear dark copper with a foamy orange-tan head that settles to a film on top of the beer. A foamy curtain of lace coats on the drink down. Smell is of toasted malt, caramel, and hop aromas. Taste is much the same with herbal hop flavors on the finish. There is a high amount of hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp and medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, this is an above average beer with a bitterness in the flavor that is not balanced very well.

472nd review on BA
Draft
App- A pretty dark red with a little bit of head and no real lace to it.
Smell- A bit light to be a strong ale but has a bit of orange, malt and a slight hop note.
Taste- It was okay, didnt blow me away and wasnt offensive. More malty than anything else.
Mouth- Medium bodied and Medium carbonated. Leaves a soft citrus note.
Drink- Pretty good, like I said wasnt blown away but didnt throw it away. Would like to try again by itself.

Drinking this right now at the brewery.
Pours a dark blood red. Small head dissapated but it is leaving some nice lacing all the way down the glass.
Smells a little of citrus and maltiness. Not a strong smell.
Taste is great. Nice hoppy bitterness with a sweet malt character to it. I like it.
Mouthfeel is great. Nice carbonation/viscosity ratio.
Drinkability is high. I have had this several times and I like it alot. Will come here and have it many more times. Great beer to have a few in a row even if you wanted to. I like to change it up alot though.

Sampled at the Main Street brewery in Corona on 1/3/2009, reviewed from notes, color is a very dark red, 3/4 inch creamy light tan head that does not last long, minimal lacing, smell is up of resin, lemon, tangerine, caramel, and light booze, taste is pretty hoppy up front and is sweet in the background, pretty weak flavor for its style, more like an amber mixed with a brown ale than anything, can be nutty in the finish, mouthfeel is pretty thin, sweet, and dry at times, above average level of carbonation, could not drink much more than a few ounces, but that is not because it is too strong or anything, just unbalanced at various times, especially once it warms, not great or horrible, might be worth tasting
