nickd717 (1276), Palo Alto, California, USA May 18, 2009 Bottle from City Beer in SF. Hazy orangish amber color with an off-white head. Aroma of yeast, banana, clove, spices, dark fruit, and alcohol. Flavor was similar, banana and clove stood out. Fairly sweet and complex. Smooth, medium-full palate. Has hints of both breweries in it. soyorganic (217), Denver, Colorado, USA May 15, 2009 Bomber, I was not too impressed with this maybe because I had it after the world wide stout. I noticed a banana type aroma. It has heavy carbonation with what I thought was a copper, earthy taste with some sweetness to it. Bitter and funky. I wont seek it out but wont turn it down. jjuf1853 (467), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA May 14, 2009 Draft, pours a cloudy tannish orange color with a beige head. Very nice lacing along the glass. Aroma of yeast, wheat, caramel malt, dried fruit, and spices. Similar taste with an additional presence of hops in the finish. Slightly chewy mouthfeel. NomDeBeer (398), Maryland, USA May 11, 2009 Batch #3, bottled Feb. 2009. Pours a hazy, light brown color with a rocky white head. Aroma is ripe fruit, sugar, and a touch of alcohol. Taste is crisp and enjoyable - sugar and spice plus quite a bit of cloves - almost like a wheat beer on steroids. Thin body. Drinkable and enjoyable. arondee (176), Tucson, Arizona, USA May 10, 2009 Bottle from Total Wine. Pour is Red/Orange, a bit cloudy with an off-white head and lots of lacing. Aroma is citrus hops and malt. Taste is pretty complex, citrus, apple, yeast and malt. Really good, nice surprise. uhre (339), Denmark May 8, 2009 Aroma of caramel and dark fruit. The beer is very pale orange with a small head. The flavor is of caramel and prunes with a dry finish - which really fits the beer. swoopjones (1862), Buffalo, New York, USA May 7, 2009 tap at Coles Buffalo NY. Pours a hazy amber orange. Sweet fruity yeasty aroma. Taste is spicy, yeasty. Some floral aspects. A less smooth tasting Maudite. Very nice & drinkable Aquilo (248), California, USA May 6, 2009 Batch #3. Light brown, almost blond, with a thick cream colored head. Aroma and flavor are very mellow, slightly fruity and spicy. Aroma has a hint of tangerine, and the spice is like cardamom. Flavor has some banana and cream notes. A bit of yeast in there as well. Very nice blend all around.
