4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
750ml bottle. Poured a hazy yellow color. The head was white with good retention. Some lace was left behind on the glass at the end. Attractive aroma of flower blossom, sweet orange marmalade, lime, and coriander. Medium bodied and semi-sweet with a light chalky feel. Well orchestrated melange of flavors including the likes of citrus fruits (orange and lime), coriander, peach pasty, and a dash of powdered sugar. Delicious. I prefered the this one to the ’07 Fluxus.

Pours a hazy soft orange. The head was creamy and white. The nose was really sweet and spicy, the yarrow is really prominent, alcohol is too. Smells similar to a winter warmer. Tastes really sweet, prominent yarrow, white pepper, yeasty, warm alcohol. Not bad, I just couldn’t do too much of it.
