Golden hazy body with huge white head. Aroma is hoppy and citrusy. Flavour is slightly hoppy but little else. Finish lingers in an unpleasant and sour manner. Not a very good beer.

Crystal clear gold coloured body with a fast-dying white head. Aroma of skunky hops, caster sugar, light malt and some odd fruit aromas. Light-bodied; Sharp hoppy flavour with some malt lingering behind along with a short fruity flavour. Aftertaste shows nothing with a bit of metal and malt. Overall, a pretty bad offering, but not the worst. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Merchant’s in Dearborn, Michigan on 19-November-2005 on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.

In the bottle at the Max & Joe’s Tavern Michigan Beer tasting (11/21/6). Bright golden yellow in color. Vaporous white head. Ketone diacetyl aroma. Tart sour flavor. This beer is a drain pour. Gone bad. Yuk.

Poured piss yellow. Not much in the nose besides mild grainy hops. Tasted slightly hoppy but had a bitter too dry finish. Not too good but still better than a Bud.

Sampled on draught @ Traverse Brewing Company in Williamsburg, Michigan. Clear light yellow color. Subtle aroma, with light malt (grain, cookie), light cascase (citrus), along with a touch of leather and vanilla, though barely there. Not much in the flavor either, perhaps a bit of earthy hops, biscuit and skunk. Another beer from this brewery that I did not like.

Dark golden yellow, no head. Aroma and flavor very euro-skunky and sour. Long euro-skunk aftertaste. very watered down.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy light orange w/ foamy white head. Nose is piney, hint of citrus. Taste is watery and sour.

12 oz. Bottle: Light golden pour with fizzling white head. Aromas of hops, citrus, and sugar. Flavor is mild to start, with light hops before an overwhelming sourness takes affect. Not a sweet sourness, but a bitter one, like an old grapefruit. Hard to drink, and even harder to finish.

Bottle pour at fest. Golden colored. Lacking in every possible aspect. Sour hints pervade taste. Mercy rating.
