A thin white head which reduces to a layer of clumps. The beer is an amber colour with lots of carbonation.
The aroma is apple citrus with a strong alcohol presence.
Feel is quite full and rich with a mouth drying end.
Taste is very nice, Tart apple like citrus tastes with a solid malty sweet base. The alcohol taste is assertive and reminds me of vodka. There is an earthiness to the hop finish which is very pleasant and the dry almost peppery finish makes me want more.
I like this beer, it would be very easy to lose sight of how strong it is thanks to the nicely blended tastes. One to drink for enjoyment and with caution.

Gold color with a thin, quickly disappearing head.
Aroma is a hint of berries, wood and alcohol.
It starts with a hop and alcohol hit and has a pleasant creamy mouth feel but it finishes with an overbearing alcohol flavor.
This is just a strong fairly flavorless brew.

I found this to be a much better beer than you did.
The tastes were subtle, I admit, but there were a lot of different tastes in this beer.
The alcohol did tend to dominate but some of the apple flavours that came through were very nice.
I really enjoyed it and have a few more to sip on with a pork dinner sometime.

No head on this at all.
Not much smell either.
It feels thick and full I guess, like a glass of milk.
Taste is like alcohol. I can taste a burn like vodka or something but not as strong.
I can find some raisins and apple tastes but mostly just the alcohol.
I could get wrecked real fast on this stuff. It tastes strong so I know to watch out for it.
