3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Golden body, with a small white head. Funky sweet yeasty aroma is sort of unique. Not quite floral, light bready caramel notes. Flavour contains similar characteristics, and notes of what one drinker described as tea leaves. Its not quite right, but its the closest thing i can think of. Palate is smoothish but on the light side. Doesn’t really do it for me, but it may have suffered a bit for being such a contrast to the sour beers imbibed previously. Thanks for the bottle Probiere!
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
This pours a rich, golden amber body, moderately carbonated, with a decent, bubbly white head. The nose is full of fruit (peach, cherry) and alcohol... very perfumey. The flavor is likewise fruity, mainly peach, other light fruits, perhaps. There’s lots of spiciness and alcohol in the taste as well. Having a sweet alcohol finish, this a decent, not great, ale.

2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Clean amber, small crown on top. Sweet, fruity aroma, noticeable alcohol. Medium-light body, soft texture, some wheat like character. Alcoholic finish. This al would benefit from lower alcohol content.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: FEB 19, 2007 Head is initially average sized, frothy, white, mostly diminishing. Body is clear dark yellow. Aroma is lightly to moderately malty (toasted grain), lightly to moderately hoppy (herbs), lightly yeasty (mold, cobwebs, dough), with notes of alcohol, pepper, gum, and dried pineapple. Flavor is moderately to heavily sweet, lightly acidic, lightly to moderately bitter. Finish is lightly to moderately sweet, moderately bitter. Medium body, velvety texture, lively carbonation, lightly to moderately alcoholic. Decent, and drier in the finish than I recall.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Hazy orange coloured. Yeasty and fruity aroma. Sweet and yeasty flavour with notes of peaches and other fruits.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Slightly hazy deep golden amber with a good lively head which fades slightly. Aroma is fruity with lots of esters, and balanced by yeasty and spicy phenolics. Some pepper aromas as well. Slightly sweet, yeasty flavor with a good finish. Body is low to medium. The high carbonation and high alcohol combine to really knock you on your ass.
