Crushed with Jakebra. Exploded like a bitch. Nice and sweet without being cloying. Some nice honey sweetness in the finish. Had very low expectations right away, but it’s got a surprising amount of awesomeness.

Bottle. Pours a murky dark gold with some floaters and a half finger beige head that results in spotty lacing. The nose is fruity and sugary. Taste is yeast, sweet malt, light hops and mild spice. Medium prickly mouth feel. Not great, but refreshing. It’s like a Belgian Light.

Bottle. Pours a amber golden body with a 2 finger white head. Fruity esters coriander, lemon, and licorice. Cardboard, spices dull and bland. weak offering.

12 oz bottle purchased at Frugal MacDoogal’s in Nashville. Poured a hazy gold color with orange highlights and a three finger white, creamy head. The aroma was caramel, strawberries and honey. The flavor was malty with strawberries and french bread. Something is very off about the finish. Someone prior to this rating described it as dishwater. I think that is about right. The palate was average with higher carbonation than I would have liked, a medium body and a crisp mouthfeel. I’m not too fond of this beer, but without the twang in the finish, I would have enjoyed it more.

12oz bottle. Pours an off-white head with a deep golden body. Smells of bread, strawberries, honey, and hops. Tastes the same. Bit of dishwater on the finish tho.

Reddish amber wit ha tight white head. yeasty, fruity aroma. Flavor is soft and fruity, dominated by Belgian yeast. Light in body, smooth and nice.

Amber with floaties, bubbles and a patchy off-white head. Aroma of grain, yeast and fruit. Kind of thin, it must be that Colorado water. Yeast, malt, mild alcohol, caramel and mild sugar dominate the flavor. So-so at best.
