Can Women In Tech Have It All?
"We need to get off each others' backs and trust each is busting her hump. And when someone needs a hand, and you have one free, offer her yours. You just never know when you'll be the one who needs it." - Tereza Nemessanyi, Founder and CEO of Honestly Now
And The First New York Tech Meetup's Women's Demo Night Looked Like This…
Women's Demo Night in New York was hosted by New York Tech Meetup, Change the Ratio and Bizspark.
By Shindy Chen (Contributor, New York Tech Women)
At the inaugural New York Tech Meetup Women's Demo Night, the city's xx-chromosomed powerhouses and tech scene up-and-comers were certainly in residence at Microsoft's midtown offices.
Demos from eight women-founded startups with two "selected shorts" (two-minute demos, two audience questions) were made possible by NYTM, Change the Ratio and Microsoft BizSpark, kicking off the evening was Jessica Lawrence, NYTM's Managing Director.
Here's a summary:
Find Yourself In The Wild West? Find Your True North
By Christina Vuleta (Founder, 40:20)
Editor's note: This is an interview with a startup veteran on starting your career at a startup.
Tereza Nemessanyi, CEO and Co-Founder of Honestly Now, has seen both sides of the startup coin. Her career path took her from being employee number one at a new media venture in Eastern Europe to corporate America to launching her own Internet startup this past year.
Honestly Now, a Q&A social platform to help people make great personal decisions, recently received a round of seed
A Different Look At Startups (Vs. Penelope Trunk)
By Joanne Wilson (Blogger & Angel Investor, Gotham Gal)
Penelope Trunk's post titled "Stop Telling Women to do Startups" made the rounds this weekend. This is not the first time that we have heard from Penelope and I am sure it will not be the last. As I sat down to write my thoughts on her post and others comments, I chuckled to myself as I read the Editors note: Her opinions are her own. Well…they sure as hell are.
She does get one thing right from the very beginning of her post; Clearly, women have a choice.
Recommend an Awesome Product or Service Created By a Woman-Led Company for the 2011 Holiday Shopping Guide
By Tereza Nemessanyi (Co-Founder & CEO, Honestly Now)
A few weeks ago I read this post about a woman founder and her cool product, and thought, "Hey! I have to buy this for Xmas for my girls!"
Subsequently, Peggy Wallace of Golden Seeds, who sits on my Board, shared with me her insights from the Women's Forum in France. Women wield significant economic might, but this does not translate back to economic empowerment for women or sustainability of the planet.
The holiday season is around the corner.
My Voicemail From Virginia "Ginni" Rometty in 2002
By Tereza Nemessanyi (Co-Founder & CEO, Honestly Now)
One afternoon in 2002, the red light turned on on my office phone — I had a voicemail.
That morning, IBM had announced its acquisition of PWC Consulting, which was the largest acquisition in the history of IBM. I'd worked on one part of the PWC Consulting side of the deal. There was talk of some hotshot woman from IBM who led the whole thing.
Got to admit — feelings were mixed.
On one hand, many of us were highly skeptical
Founding CEO Tereza Nemessanyi of Honestly Now Secures Funding From Golden Seeds, Canrock Ventures
By Tereza Nemessanyi (Co-Founder & CEO, Honestly Now)
Editor's note: Last week, TechCrunch announced Honestly Now raised an undisclosed amount of funding from Golden Seeds and Canrock Ventures. Co-Founder and CEO Tereza Nemessanyi authors a guest blog post special to Women 2.0 about the process.
As I sit down to write this, I'm nervous. Really nervous. Our team is jamming to complete the data migration from 1.0 to 2.0. In 1 hour 7 minutes, the announcement is set to break in the press. It will tell the world, or the part of the world who cares, that Honestly Now has a new product, and got funded.
Bringing the Women 2.0 Revolution to SXSW 2012 – Please Vote!
By Veronika Sonsev (Founder & CEO, InSparq)
The tech industry has traditionally been a boys' club — women have been under represented as developers, founders and c-level executives. However, thanks to traditional and social media, a network of loosely associated groups (Women 2.0, Change the Ratio, RailsBridge, Girls in Tech, Women in Wireless, etc.) and an army of women driven to change the ratio, we are starting to see some early signs of improvement:
Parent Entrepreneurs Strike Work Life Balance: Advice From Jennifer Toney and Carol Realini
By Angie Chang (Co-Founder & Editor-In-Chief, Women 2.0)
This week, Pemo Theodore interviewed Jennifer Toney, co-founder and CEO of WeMakeItSafer. When asked about being a "mompreneur", "balancing it all" and gender bias, Jennifer said:
"There tends to be a fear that moms aren't going to have the same amount of time as a single person, or someone without children, to spend on their startups. And to that, I would say everybody has something else that they're working on. By definition, if you are a successful entrepreneur, you are most likely an overachiever and so whether you are a marathon runner or a sailor, or you're sitting on boards of other startups, or you're trying to work on a charity and solve world hunger — you're doing something else anyway. And so for a mom, your something else happens to be your children."
When Jennifer had kids, it wasn't the business, technology and entrepreneurship that took a sideline. Jennifer stopped gymming and running triathalons instead. She admits her schedule "changes but it doesn't mean you have less time to work on your business."
She notes that the people who question work/life balance are oftentimes people without kids
Response to VC CONFESSION: "I Have Doubts Once I Think Of Women Founders Having Kids…"
By Angie Chang (Co-Founder, Women 2.0)
Jessica Jackley is best known as the co-founder of Kiva.org — Currently, she is starting up ProFounder.com to help you raise money for your business from your community.
Jessica has raised funding from over 30 investors for her latest startup.
One of her angel investors questions if female founders should be treated differently. He wrote a blog post titled "Putting Women First".
Reposted with a new title on BusinessInsider as "VC CONFESSION: "I Have Doubts Once I Think Of Women Founders Having Kids And Being Distracted From Work" — this post has received tons of comments.
Below are responses to "A pregnant founder is going to fail her company" –
"I'm busy running said company. I expect to be even busier with not just one but two babies (yes, to be clear, I'm expecting twins) arriving this fall. And as all entrepreneurs know, you live and die by your ability to prioritize. You must focus on the most important, mission-critical tasks each day and night, and then share, delegate, delay or skip the rest. So, while Paige's post was intriguing and important, it wasn't urgent – until it came to my attention that my team was somewhat bothered by it. When they saw one of our investors questioning my abilities as a leader, they were confused and frustrated. And so I am now replying on their behalf as well as mine."
Comment by Jessica Jackley (Co-Founder & CEO, ProFounder)
– in response to Paige Craig's blog post "Putting Women First"
"When my sister and I co-founded Magellan [first search engine in 1993] and worked all the hours that g-d gave, when we finally sold the company and Excite gave me a goodbye party, my then 11 year old son came, and when the time came for speeches, he gave one – which started out something like, as he looked around the room with his big blue eyes… "I don't know if you all realize, if you all realize how hard my mom worked""
Comment by Isabel Maxwell (Founder & President, Maxwell Communications)
– in response to Paige Craig's blog post "Putting Women First"
"As someone who joined a startup at 5.5 months pregnant, worked up until 3 days before giving birth, and came back full-time 6 weeks later, I would question the assumption that your cofounder will somehow become incompetent due to childbearing. "Working smart" is the new "working long", and nothing makes you ruthlessly prioritize like having a baby."
Comment by Cindy Alvarez (Head of Product, KISSmetrics)
– in response to Quora: "Is it wrong to fire an (unvested) co-founder who becomes pregnant at a startup?"
"Parenting creates a laser focus that you didn't have before. Through parenting I have learned to operate at a totally different capacity. I don't hesitate to say what I think, because there is not time to do business any other way. Who has time to screw around? Frankly you hear so little from us because we don't have time to linger on chat boards."

Survey Finds Accountants Most Difficult To Recruit & Retain

The de minimis rule doesn't come into play very often. Since it only rears its head when bond prices have fallen significantly, most CPAs probably haven't even thought of it since 1994.

Latest news
The vulnerability, first spotted being misused to target visitors of the website of the Council on Foreign Relations, a think tank specializing in U.S. foreign policy and international affairs, has since been detected being used in attacks that compromised a number of other websites, including Chinese human rights sites and the site of Capstone Turbine Corp.
Symantec researchers have linked the attacks to the Elderwood gang - a group of hackers that are believed to be working for the Chinese government and that concentrate on gathering and stealing intelligence (trade secrets, contacts, infrastructure details, intelligence for future attacks) and intellectual property (designs and plans) from an ever-increasing number of companies mostly located in the United States.
Their predilection for zero-day vulnerabilities has been well-documented, and their use of a function named HeapSpary (a mistype of Heap Spray) and other similarities discovered by the researchers between all these attacks seem to validate that conclusion.
Still, the worst news comes from researchers from security firm Exodus Intelligence: the Fix It tool released by Microsoft that supposedly reduces the attack surface of the vulnerability is flawed.
"Usually, there are multiple paths one can take to trigger or exploit a vulnerability," Brandon Edwards, VP of Intelligence at Exodus commented for ThreatPost. "The Fix It did not prevent all those paths."
They shared their working exploit with Microsoft, and have agreed not to publish it until the vulnerability is adequately patched. Still, that doesn't mean that the attackers haven't already figured it out for themselves.

Democrats don't stand much of a chance of retaking the House in 2014. Photo: (Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images)
If you didn't know any better, Tuesday night's jaunty, optimistic State of the Union address might convince you that the President's approval ratings were well above 50 percent and that he had a supportive Congress waiting in the wings. On the other hand, Obama could just as well have had a burr in his saddle. In all likelihood, he's governing now with as good a supporting cast as he'll have in the next one thousand days.
Barring political earthquakes, the type of which haven't been seen in 12 years, Democrats aren't likely to regain control of the House, and they might lose several seats in the Senate. No matter how successfully Obama prosecutes his agenda in 2013, this fact won't change. It explains why he will govern at a remove from Congress for the next few years, and why he was so eager to accept a two-year budget deal that many Democrats found distasteful.
Given the disastrous approval ratings of House Republicans, it's easy to wonder why Democrats aren't in better shape. But past elections heavily influence future ones. In 2010, House Republicans won more than 60 new seats, and their partisans in state legislatures set out to draw them as safely as possible for the future. That's why, in 2012, Democrats won the House popular vote by 1.4 million but managed to net only eight House seats, leaving Republicans with a healthy 33 seat cushion.
As Rhodes Cook notices, House and national presidential vote concentrations are highly synchronized, more so than at any point in nearly 60 years. Only 26 House districts chose a different party's nominee in the presidential election. Just four years earlier, almost a fifth of all Congressional districts saw a split vote. (The why: Secondary to the party's growing conservative energy, Republicans have all but consolidated control of formerly Democratic states in the South, squishing and concentrating Democratic voters into small enclaves; in the Northeast, solid Republican districts are similarly sparse.)
Gerrymandering after Congressional redistricting might help Republican members of Congress stick to their districts, but the effect of their incumbent powers, still the preferred explanation for why it is so hard to dislodge individual members of Congress, would make it difficult for Democrats to challenge the majority anyway, even if the country had yet to finish its geographic sorting. Democrats can't pick up too many Congressional seats at once because Democrats tend to "waste votes." That's not a knock. It's a fact that's plain on a map. Democratic seats are increasingly (and really, have almost always been, in the modern era), smaller, geographically, than Republican seats, and clustered around cities. The party can drive up its margin without winning new seats. Democratic voters tend to be more urban than Republican voters.
The Senate is in play because there are enough competitive Republican candidates; Democrats have a much better map in 2016.
In the last decade of the 20th century, Democrats managed to hold on to majorities in Congress far more regularly than they won the presidency. The first half of the 21st century reverses this trend: Democrats are better positioned to win the presidency than they are to effect dramatic swings in the House.
They'll have to win back Congressional districts seat by seat, which will require a lot of concentrated money and resources, superb candidates, weak opponents, and a lot of luck. The President won't be on the ballot to lift Democratic vote totals in marginal districts, and while the economy is improving, voters are not rewarding Democrats with higher approval ratings and Obama's job approval rating is above ten points below where it needs to be in order for him to generate an off-year bandwagon effect.

11 Questions from the Community
A. American Standard sinks and bathtubs are generally made of acrylic, cast iron, or Americast. The American Standard 0282.008 is made of Fireclay which is similar to China. If you have any other questions I would be more than happy to help.
Do you have a petite version of this sink?
I am looking for cross handles that will work with this sink. It is not clear to me which handles you carry that will work and also match in design.
Can this sink sit on console legs or will it only work with a pedestal base?
Can the Retrospect 27" sink be wall mounted without the pedestal ?
I like the chrome stand the sink is sitting on in the picture. Do you sell this to go with the sink?
Do you sell the vanity base for this sink
Where is pedestal
What is included with this sink? Is the pedastal included or sold separate.
Once installed does the plumbing show on the chrome stand version? What does that look like?
A. The American Standard 0282.008 is going to be showing on the chrome stand. It will look like the picture does except with a pipe showing somewhere around the towel bar. The picture just doesn't show the pipe for the sake of aesthetics.

FOREX-Euro, dollar soar vs yen as BOJ eases policy aggressively

- Share this
* Dollar, euro on pace for best day vs yen since 2008 * BOJ pledges to pump $1.4 trillion into economy * ECB's Draghi says "ready to act," Cyprus no template By Wanfeng Zhou and Gertrude Chavez-Dreyfuss NEW YORK, April 4 (Reuters) - The dollar and euro soared more than 3 percent against the yen on Thursday in their biggest one-day moves since 2008 after the Bank of Japan announced a level of monetary easing to fight deflation that was seen as a radical overhaul of policy. The BOJ pledged to inject about $1.4 trillion into the economy in less than two years. Governor Haruhiko Kuroda, chairing his first policy meeting, committed the BOJ to open-ended asset buying and said the monetary base would nearly double to 270 trillion yen ($2.9 trillion) by the end of 2014. "This is not your grandfather's BOJ," said Boris Schlossberg, managing director of FX Strategy at BK Asset Management in New York. "The fact that they came out, doubled the size of the QE and are willing to do all these non-conventional measures suggested that they really want to take dollar/yen to 100," said Boris Schlossberg, managing director of FX Strategy at BK Asset Management in New York. The dollar rose as high as 96.41 yen on Reuters data, near a 3-1/2-year peak of 96.71 set on March 12. It was last trading at 96.14 yen, up 3.3 percent on the day and on track for its best day since October 2008. The euro soared 3.5 percent to 123.68 yen, the biggest one-day move since November, 2008. It had earlier climbed to 123.93 yen on Reuters data. In the near term, analysts said whether the yen will extend its declines will depend on the U.S. nonfarm payrolls report, due on Friday. Employers likely added 200,000 jobs to their payrolls last month and the unemployment rate is seen steady at a four-year low of 7.7 percent, according to a Reuters poll. A disappointing reading could keep U.S. bond yields depressed and add to expectations of more bond-buying from the Federal Reserve, which would pressure the dollar against the yen. Data showing weaker-than-expected growth in U.S. private-sector employment and initial jobless claims at four-month highs last week has fueled worries the labor market is losing momentum. The euro was little changed versus the dollar in choppy trade after European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said the bank stood ready to act if growth continues to languish. He also affirmed his commitment to keeping the euro zone intact and said the Cyprus bailout was not a "template" for future rescues in the currency zone. The euro was last flat at $1.2855. It had earlier dropped to $1.2745, its lowest in more than four months, as Draghi highlighted the downside risks to the euro zone economy, suggesting the bank could further slash interest rates. FURTHER YEN WEAKNESS Traders said the yen's falls were magnified because the market had prepared for the BOJ to deliver less than expected, as it had done in the past. The BoJ shocked markets in what was seen as a radical overhaul of policymaking, shifting the policy target to the monetary base from the overnight call rate and ditching its previous stance of shunning long-term bonds. The BOJ's new plan means it will buy about 7 trillion yen ($73 billion) of bonds per month, equivalent to about 1.4 percent of gross domestic product. By comparison, the U.S. Federal Reserve is buying $85 billion of bonds per month - about 0.6 percent the size of the economy. The yen extended losses as Kuroda said he would not hesitate to adjust policy further. Market players said Japanese institutional investors were also likely to increase overseas investments, which could trigger the next leg in yen weakness. The yen also weakened against other currencies, with the Australian dollar rising above 100 yen for the first time since 2008. Nomura Securities said given the weaker U.S. growth momentum lately, the dollar may not be the best currency to express yen weakness. Instead, the firm said it's buying the Australian dollar against the yen, targeting a move to 105 in two to three months.

Bringing emergency contraception over the counter: Experiences of nonprescription users in France, Norway, Sweden and Portugal (HTML)

Contraception 68(2): 117-124
Publication date: 2003
Emergency contraceptive pills are now available on a nonprescription basis in over 25 countries worldwide. In an effort to learn about women's experiences with this new means of emergency contraception (EC) service delivery, we conducted focus-group discussions with nonprescription EC users from France, Norway, Portugal and Sweden. Participants from these countries overwhelming supported pharmacy access to EC, explaining that pharmacy delivery facilitated rapid access to the method. Despite expressing mixed reviews of the counseling given by the providing pharmacists, participants reported that they knew how use the method safely and properly. Most indicated that the package insert was easy to understand and adequately answered the majority of their questions. Participants described the EC experience as a motivating factor that, in many cases, has led to more consistent use of regular contraceptive methods. These data are valuable to policy-makers and institutions interested in learning more about the safety and acceptability of nonprescription access to emergency contraceptive pills.

Description: This April 18, 1968 front page feature published in the Guilford College student newspaper, The Guilfordian, reports on events occurring on the Guilford campus following the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. as well as the range of feelings expressed by members of the college community. The college held a memorial service and a silent vigil on the edge of campus before the City of Greensboro imposed a curfew. The curfew was put in place following an incident at North Carolina A&T State University where three police officers were shot. As part of the curfew, the National Guard set up a blockade on Friendly Road in front of the college to, "prevent unauthorized vehicles from entering Greensboro."

Split a bottle with some friends, 100 from the Bros.? We'll see....
Almost a champagne like look/aroma/taste to this one, definitely one of the more unique Belgian strong pale ale's I've had. Kinda fruity smell, and surprisingly easy to drink for the high ABV. Doesn't really knock your socks off with taste though, but has a smooth finish and dry aftertaste making it mostly drinkable. Good beer, but wouldn't call it that great or 'amazing' in my opinion, glad I got to try it though.

Appearance: A yellowish gold color, very little carbonation with little to no head.
Smell: Mild and faint flowery smell, not much to go by but pleasant.
Taste: Fruity aroma like a Chimay, and strong flavor of spices.
Mouthfeel: Drinkable, a lighter beer would come and go but this stays longer. It almost keeps in a way that makes you want to eat what you just drank.
Overall: Nothing that gave me a come-back moment. I wanted to try it but didn't have high expectations going into it. I would tell my past self to go for a different beer instead of this one.

1 pint 9.4 fl oz brown glass bottle with standard pressure cap acquired at Wades Wine in Westlake Village, California and served into an EKU 28 snifter in low altitude Los Angeles, California. I was a bit taken aback at the standard pressure cap; I'm used to Alesmith using corks. Reviewed live. Expectations are very high given the brewery, which has impressed me in the past. Cost was $10.99 USD plus tax.
Served refrigerator cold and allowed to warm over the course of consumption. Side-poured into the snifter without any extra vigor; I didn't anticipate carbonation issues. Snifter was filled with liquid; I didn't use brandy quantities (if you put the snifter on it's side, beer would definitely spill out). I left the yeast in the bottle per the label's instructions.
A: Pours a three finger head of slight cream, fair thickness, and great retention for the ABV. Really looks like a believable Belgian abbey head. Colour is a hazy semitransparent lemon yellow. It's generally appealing for the style, and the retention impresses me.
Sm: Coriander and spices, candi sugar, Belgian yeasts, clean malts, and some light earthy notes. A mild strength aroma. Pleasant and inviting; certainly indicative that the beer is alive.
T: Clean malts form the foundation. Coriander and pleasant spices are very complementary of the overall profile. Candi sugar gives it a delightful subtle sweetness that manifests alongside its fizzy delicate mouthfeel. Some subtle yeast notes. Really pleasant and refreshing. Fresh and enjoyable. Biscuity. Very full bodied. Complex yet subtle. There's some wonderful layering going on, particularly with the well-chosen malts. Incredibly well balanced and wonderfully built for the style. Very lovely.
Mf: Smooth and wet. Delicate and thin without feeling weak or inadequate. I don't know how they kept the mouthfeel so restrained while maintaining such a full bodied flavour profile. Quite remarkable. Perfectly carbonated, without any sharpness at all. Complements the flavour quite well. A bit of cream, but not as it is in most stouts; more subtle.
Dr: It drinks like it's 5%. Very drinkable for the ABV and style. It's really an excellent beer. I would definitely have this again, preferably aged or on-draught. Another very impressive beer from Alesmith. Brilliant for the style.
It drank just fine out of me snifter. I'd recommend this one for aging, absolutely. It's hard to imagine it much better, but I'd certainly like to try it. On par with Russian River's damnation in terms of Belgian style golden ales.

A very decent Belgian style ale. Despite the strong abv there is not even the slightest hint of alcohol in the aroma or taste. This has almost a champagne type quality to it. There is a lot of malt in the taste, but it is balanced by the citrus and slight sweetness. A nice fresh slice of orange would go well with this.
The aroma has a fresh and slightly fruity smell that hints at the actual taste. A very easy to drink beer with a smooth finish and a very dry aftertaste. I would be interested in aging this at some point.

Big thanks goes out to my doppelganger for sharing this one me at a tasting! Served from bottle into a Mikkeller taster flute. Poured a pale straw yellow with a two finger pure white head that subsided to a minimal amount slowly. Maintained decent lacing throughout the glass. The aroma was comprised of sweet malt, banana, clove, spice, and sweet alcohol. The flavor was of sweet malt, banana, alcohol, and spice. It had a light feel on the palate with high carbonation. Overall this was a fairly decent brew. This one was all over the place with the aroma and flavor. The alcohol definitely makes itself known throughout the entire brew. Despite this fact it was really well balanced, but the alcohol hurts the drinkability. Worth trying if you see it around.

Poured from bomber into tulip glass. Pours clear golden with a massive, rocky white head that slowly recedes to an even layer of lace, leaving a bit of lace residue along the inside of the glass. The nose is super fruity with pear, white grape, candi sugar, and spices, along with some fairly light hay malt, and just a hint of alcoholic heat. The flavor is lightly sweet up front with the candi sugar and, pear and grape juice showing nicely, along with the spices and hay malt just lightly peaking through. The body is medium with lively, mouth-filling carbonation. A pretty good offering from AleSmith for the style.

Fresh 750, served at 55 in an NewB snifter. White fine foam, sticks around for a while too.
Nose is a huge wiff of mellow citrus and honey on the back end. If a smell could have an equivalent of mouthfeel, this comes off as powdery. Never experienced this before.
Taste is sweet and mild citrusy coriandery taste, belgian spice.
Nose is super complex- by far one of my favorites. There is just so much nuance, unlike anything I've ever had.

look: 5 | smell: 4 | taste: 5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 5
Champagne bottle cellared above 45 degrees for a full year. Served at precisely 55 degrees.
A - Golden body with a great amount of carbonated action. The head is massive from the get-go in a pure white cloak. The stamina is extraordinary as it slowly fades leaving a meringue looking top... minus the toasty brown edges.
S - Pale malt, sweet alcohol, subtle SweetTarts and divinely hidden hops.
T - Thick malt flavor with a sweet finish. There's a certain Belgian yeast quality that doesn't overwhelm but is rather accented by the malts. There is no alcohol taste here even though the beer is 11% abv, which is rather amazing when you consider there are no roasted or heavy caramel malts evident in the beer. This is truly a world class bevy.
M - Coarse and abrasive in the beginning. As the bottle gets more and more shallow that abrasiveness wears out. This leads into a softer, easier drinking, medium bodied, thicker beer. It's nice and warm in the mouth, chest, stomach and eventually head. Even the finish drys nicely.
~ This is a fantastic beer. I don't for a minute regret holding on to it in my cellar for a year. When I purchased the brew I paid $11.99 at a super place in Orange, California called Hollingshead's Delicatessen. I look forward to going back, and when I do, I will pick up another bottle of this fine Belgian from Southern California.

750ml bottle poured into a Tulip Glass.
A - Pours a cloudy orange with a short-lived fluffy white head that settles to a slight haze.
S - Sweet aromas of ripe pear, Candi sugar, spicy coriander, and Juicyfruit gum. Seriously.
T - Taste is similar to the nose, very fruity, with more ripe pear, berry, Candi sugar, coriander, and more of that "Tutti-Frutti" gum thing going on.
M - Crisp and slick, with a medium body and "spritzy" carbonation.
O - A good beer, but not at all what I was expecting (which was basically a Duvel clone). Very fruity, and pretty unique.

look: 3 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5
Poured a big white head faded away very fast to a slight cap, but totally goes away as you drink through the beer. Solid yellow body...little bit hazy and lots of carbonation bubbles flowing up the glass. No alcohol sticking to the glass.
Huge sugary sweet aroma. Lots of candied sugar, lemon custard, yeast esters, pear, and vanilla. Smells a lot like you've just walked into a Whole Foods. (I mean that in the most positive of ways)
Upfront lots of candied sugary sweetness which goes away a bit in the middle and the end but comes back to coat the mouth in the aftertaste. Coriander sits on the tip of the tongue when the beer first hits it. Over ripened peaches, lemon peel, creamy fruit tart, and lemon pie flavors. Carbonation is noticeable but it doesn't have a sharp or palate cleansing style presence like many Belgian pale ales. Dry feel mid way glides over the tongue. Swirling the glass amps up the carbonation (naturally) and brings on a Sprite like flavor.
Horny Devil sits alongside any very good Belgian Triple/Pale Ale. Drinkable for such a big beer, the alcohol reveals itself slightly but never noticeable unless you're looking for it. Bits of spiciness, sweet candied sugar, faint peppery yeast, and delicate mouthfeel all add up to a must try Belgian style ale.

I had an incredibly difficult time reviewing this beer, mostly because I feel it is though it's a style that I really do not care for.
A- murky yellow/orange. Intense head, very solid lacing.
S- Belgian yeast, orange peel, pear/apple
T- not as clovey as I was originally afraid of, sweetness in the middle, pear, orange
M- nicely carbonated, shap
O- overall I'm sure it is an excellent beer if this is the kind of thing your into, just not my cup of tea!

look: 3 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 2 | overall: 2.5
Pours a cloudy, dark golden orange color with a one finger white head that immediately settles into a thin ring. Minimal spots of lace left behind.
Spicy aroma with lots of zesty coriander, bready yeast and crisp, light fruit. Slightly earthy with some grass, peppery coriander, candy sugar, apple and pear.
Medium bodied with sharp, tight carbonation and a prominent coriander spiciness that dominates the flavor, lingering over the grassy, yeast and light fruit notes into a slightly dry, boozy finish. The carbonation and strong spice presence makes this beer a bit harsh and difficult to drink. As it warms and the palate adjusts, the grassy hops, bready yeast and fruit notes become more evident. Hints of apple, pear and candy sugar add sweetness but the spice is too strong for my liking. Finishes with a lot of boozy sweetness and warmth in the chest. ABV not very well masked and a bit one dimensional. A rare miss from AleSmith.

Overall: A good beer. Lots of good Belgian qualities but nothing I was overly excited about

A big bottle into the Duvel glass at the crib.
Horny Devil has a bright golden medal glow to it that is straw yellow to a degree. A nice amount of white bubbles form up top leaving a sheet of lace on the glass. Not as impressive looking as Alesmith IPA, but what is?
This beer takes some warming up to grasp what's there, and primarily, it's Belgian candi sugar, you cant miss it. The coriander plays a nice roll with a big straw/hay scent coming up the glass.
First sips I was not a fan, and now to the end of the bottle, Im coming around, but not 100% sold. What's advertised is there leading with candi sugar, coriander in the middle, but the 10% in the end is BIG. Tastes of alc. in the end kill off any possibility of a pleasant after taste. The hay is quite big to, but not to farmhouse levels.
Feel is a nice big medium with a blast of heat towards the end. Maybe this is just the bottle version and the tap is easier to helm. Carb is spritzy and needed. Some fruity essense comes out towards the bare end of the bottle.
Overall, A great stab at the style, but perhaps a bit too sweet with the onslaught of Candi Suga and the mountain of alcohol in the end. Would probably go great with some pasta dish shared with friends.

Half finger of white head, gold body.
Belgian, yeasty nose with wheat, some orange and coriander.
Some funk in the taste, tartness that mellows into wheat, plenty of sweet pale malt and some coriander.
Nice bright carbonation ensure this finishes cleanly.
Good Belgian style-- I can't help but be heavily reminded of Unibroue.

Bottle states this beer can be aged 6 to 24 months or longer. Ok, so how about putting a date on the bottle? Unknown age but I suspect it is fresh.
Pours a dull, cloudy golden color with a large billowing head that quickly settled to a thick cap. Moderate amount of lacing is left on the glass.
Pleasing aroma that shows its Belgian roots. Plenty of Belgian yeast esters and phenols. Hints of honey and fresh cut grass. The coriander is hard to pick out of the phenols.
Tastes just what a BSPA should taste like. This beer could easily be confused with one of the Belgian originals. I started out with the beer a little too cold, but as it warms this beer really opens up. Loads of fruity esters compliments the sweetness of the malt and candi sugar. This beer is sweeter than most of the style. I also get hints of honey and finally get the coriander. The alcohol is noticeable but adds to the flavor instead of distracting from it. Leaves a warming feeling.
Body is somewhat light for how big the flavor and alcohol is. Maybe the lively carbonation has something to do with this impression. Makes the beer easy to drink.
Really impressed with this Alesmith offering. A very good American BSPA.

Pours a hazy straw gold, lots of carbonation with a perpetual 1 finger head. Aroma of orange peel, coriander and juicy pears. Taste follows the nose but is a bit too sweet. Mouthfeel is too carbonated. Not a bad brew just too sweet and too carbonated for my liking. I'm glad I tried it but I won't be seeking this out again

Thanks to xhuskr for the trade! Poured from the bottle into a tulip glass.
A nice spritzy action, but an incredibly golden honey crystal clear with spritzy fast racing bubbles of carbonation. Head tries to form but can't. Uh oh this looks dead on arrival for a Belgian. No lacing but some wet spider legs that break. I am sensing failure. There is no head, collar, or lacing with this beer at all. What did form was very soapy disappearing instantly. An aggressive pour makes things better even giving some stickiness for the disappearing head. Ok NOW we have some staying power and stickiness.
Aroma is abundant candi yeast, floral notes and apple. Green pear a little as well. Floral hints also. Dry white wine grape sense. Extremely varied and impressive, but a big punch of gas.
Taste brings all that and more. Fruit bouquet and sugars in the palate with green apples, pears, white wine dry crispness of pinot grigio and hints of lemon. Texture is ruined by excessive carbonation. Feels more like wine than beer, but a fantastic mix of both with Belgian charm.
Overall I think this did not travel well from California, I am thinking bottle shock but could be wrong. It is really too bad but judging from other appearance reviews of this it looks like something went wrong. Too bad there is a tremendous beer behind this just wanting to escape. I will have to have this sometime again. Luckily even in this state there is very much to enjoy. It looks like this all had to do with the pour somewhat but you never know. A fantastic beer is hiding here.

A: Pours a hazy straw yellow with huge bubbly white head; good head retention with spotty lacing.
S: Nose is very complex with notes of coriander, spices, honey, Belgian yeast and sugars, fruits like apricots and peaches, and sweet grainy malts. Very pleasing.
T: A intricate collage of flavors that I can't tell are working for or against each other in this beer. It starts out sort of sweet from honey and pale malts and caramel malts. Then, the spices, pepper, and Belgian yeast cut into the sweet tropical fruity flavor of this beer. It then balances out between bitter citrus hops and a Belgian candi sugar sweetness. Slightly warm finish from the high ABV, but with everything else going on, it's not noticeable.
M: Medium to full body; medium carbonation; texture is buttery and creamy.
O: I don't know why, but this wasn't what I expected in this beer. It was really tasty and extremely easy to drink, but different then any other Belgian Strong Pale Ale I've ever had. Definitely worth trying if you see it and I'll probably pick up more bottles in the future. Very complex drink indeed.

Big thanks to Millerbuffoon for this extra! 750mL brown glass pry-top champagne bottle. No date that I could find...
Pours a hazy golden/amber orange with thin (very thin) white head. Coriander, orange juice and high-alcohol estery aromas ping around in my head. Lime and cilantro also come to mind.
Palate is slick and also prickly with some alcohol burn. Flavors center around the orange juice thing, with some artificial lime flavor and leafy green herb/botanical notes. Pale malt, hay and tonic come to mind as well. Carbonation level is really really low.
Finish is so-so, with lots of warming alcohol. Flavors are ok, but not the most complex beer and it definitely shows it's ABV all the way through.

S: deep cloying beer with tons of alcohol and a strong Belgian yeasty quality
T: very good and drinkable beer, incredible depth, malty, Belgian yeast qualities, clean, only problem (and for me it is a major problem) is that the beer is dominated by EtOH and is extremely hot, if this was somewhere around 8-9%ABV it would probably be world class for my tasting

750 ml bottle poured into a tulip.
A - The beer pours a beautiful golden orange with the color deepening nearer to the center. The head lingers, and leaves excellent lacing.
S - Smell is a combination of fruit (peaches, apricot, pears), pale malt, and coriander. Compliments the color perfectly.
T - Begins sweet with malt and fruit, and transitions into a bit of alcohol (11% after all) and spice. Finishes nicely with coriander.
M - Carbonation is perfect. Medium body, and very drinkable.
O - One of my favorite beers. Very refreshing on a warm day, and the varied, yet balanced, flavoring works well.

This brew poured out as a slightly hazy looking golden yellow color. The head was big and fluffy leaving a nice lacing. The smell of the beer had an interesting soft fruity aroma to it, the smell of Belgian yeast and some wild flowers are in there too. The taste of the beer was floral with a little hop bite to it. The mouthfeel was bubbly and tickled the taste buds. Overall I found this beer to be pretty good overall and it's worth trying if you get a chance.

750ml capped bottle traded to me from user G311. thanks again vince! drank from my duvel tulip.
A- the pour yields a slightly hazy golden orange colored body with a finger and a half of bright white head on top. the head lasts for a while before falling and leaves behind complete circles of lacing. very nice.
S- the first things i pick out of the notes are stone fruits. peaches and apricots mostly. there is also a hint of pear. light belgian candi sugar adds to the already sweet smelling mix. pale malts and a little bit of wheat move in next. coriander, clove and black pepper spiciness. floral and herbal hops.
T- the taste begins with more of the pale malts and belgian yeast that i could smell before moving onto the fruits. pear, apricot, peach, and banana. clove and coriander spices follow those. a little bit of alcohol mixes with herbal, spicy, and leafy hops at the end.
M- the body is on the lighter side of medium. the carbonation is just right. slight warming from the alcohol, but at 11% ABV its still very well hidden.
O- the strength of this one really crept up on me. its probably too much beer for one person to enjoy due to the strength, but i did it. id buy this again if it were on the shelf around here. one of the better american examples of a classic belgian style that ive had in a long time.

From this point forward I will only answer to "Adele." I just got two more awards! Lookie me!
The first is The Reader Appreciation Award which I received from Coffee Powered Mom (again!) because she rules.
And the other is the Versatile Blogger Award from my humour-hero Lisa at Lisa's Rant. Seriously, check it out. Short, hilarious rants.
Of course, as seems to be the case with most blogging awards, they each come with a set of rules.
So I've thanked my nominators (but not because this stupid list told me to! I'm genuinely grateful!) so that one's done. I think I can do the "answer 10 questions" AND the "tell everyone 7 things" rule in one swoop. I'm efficient like that.
Are you ready for the questions?
Yes. I'm not sure if that was actually one of the questions…but I am.
What is your favourite colour?
Black. Because that's what I see right before I finally sleep…and sleep is the new party to me.
What is your favourite animal?
This one:
What is your favourite non-alcoholic drink?
Water. Or the Super-Serum Captain America drinks. You can get it on special order.
Do you prefer Facebook or Twitter?
I like blending the two. Then I can pretend that I'm "friends" with "Rainn Wilson."
What is your favourite pattern?
The sleep-for-eleven-consecutive-hours pattern that Ben performs sometimes.
Do you prefer giving or getting presents?
I prefer getting presents…for my kids! Haha…you thought I was a selfish, greedy-pants for a minute there! But getting doesn't hurt either.
What is your favourite number?
Ten. Because it is the number of questions I am required to answer to get this award.
What is your favourite flower?
What is your passion?
Answering questions about myself. It's very rewarding. It's late…I'm cheeky.
