| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 26, 2010 aroma is soft candy sweetness and yeast. crunchy sweetness abounds. lightly fruity (banana and pineapple) with minor (and not offensive) phenolic streak. appearance is perfectly clear golden/straw with wispy head and bare lacing. flavor is bubblegum up front followed by a hint of the fruits laid out in the nose bookended with boneyard yeast dryness. this is beer is the definition of a golden ale and also my personal epitome of an amazing beer. the contrast of soft mouthfeel and ’slam the door shut’ dry end is amazing. if it would have been 8%+ it would make it into my top 10 easily. marcus (2033), Sacramento, California, USA

Pours golden with an attractive clinging white head that took a while to diminish. There is a banana aroma and a rather flat pale malt flavor, with citrus and hop bitterness creeping up at the finish. bhensonb (4601), Woodland, California, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Jan 19, 2010 A - Hazy burnt orange with almost no head that ends up as a ring around the edge.
S - A lot of yeast and a little grapefruit
T - Not surprisingly after 2 1/2 years the hops have died down quite a bit. Taste almost as yeasty as it smells. A bit of citrus.
M - Nice body. Very smooth. Little carbonation.
D - Although the alcohol isn’t very strong I don’t think it’s something I’d want to session.
Overall, it’s not as good as I remember but not bad. Definitely better than a Budweiser. darn1207 (746), Tallahassee, Florida, USA

Orange-gold pour with a thin white head. Cereal, caramel and tropical fruit in the aroma. Taste is lightly sweet with grass hops, nuts and the tropical fruits. Medium bodied with sticky finish and light carbonation. askofficerfriendly (520), Riverview, Florida, USA

S: Sweet malty aroma with hints of citrus fruits such as orange and lemon.
T: Nice. This is a hoppy Belgian brew. Starts off with a nice bready yeasty malty taste. Hints of orange, coriander, and grapefruit peel then come thru. Nice complex brew.
M: Medium bodied with a hint of bubbles. blutt59 (2390), Dallas, Texas, USA
