Aroma of oregano, basil, tomato, light pepper and pale malt. Flavors of basil, light tomato, pale malt, yeast, and oregano. Light body, malty, spicy, pizza-ie. The most interesting brew of that night hands down, I only wish I had a slice of pepperoni at the time for garnish. Major points for originality. CaptainCougar (5587), Rockville, Maryland, USA

Aroma of basil, oregano and garlic along with a touch of pale malt, really does smell like pizza. Body starts with some light caramel malty sweetness, a touch of bready yeast, tomato and Italian spice balance. Incredibly unique and strangely enjoyable. BückDich (4859), McCall, Idaho, USA

Nose of basil, a little oregano, light tomato, some malt and dough. The flavor is clean, light malts, lots of spices. Interesting beer that really tastes like pizza. Wish I could try a pint. bu11zeye (5925), Frisco, Texas, USA

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 31, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Cloudy, dried-apricot color with a medium white head, mostly diminishing. Ok, first off, this aroma made me literally laugh out load - oregano, basil, tomato - and by psychological default your brain tells you "pizza!" Flavor: fruity apricot, mango mixed with slight pine and oregano. After tasting, going back to the aroma I can now pick out hints of citric hops. Flavor isn’t as "pizza-y" as aroma - rather crisp, sweet and refreshing. Moderately carbonated. What an interesting beer - as a basil and tomato lover, this stuff was awesome. tjthresh (1782), Greenfield, Indiana, USA

Wierd. Hazed yellow with no head. It smells and tastes like pizza spices. Oregano and garlic seemed to be in the front. Certainly worth trying. Immy (1912), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jul 24, 2007 RBSG 2007 Grand Tasting. Cloudy yellow with no head. Oregano/basil nose and flavor, some breadiness. Weak body detracts from what could have been a pretty interesting beer. I think some flavors are noticed through the power of "pizza suggestion". Still, not bad for what is basically a gimmick beer.
