3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 bhensonb (8991) - Woodland, California, USA - AUG 2, 2011
Bottle from Beverages 4 Less in Santee, CA. Pours hazy amber gold with a creamy/foamy near white head. Aroma is spicy herb over light caramel. Med+ body. Flavor is actually suggestive of tea, and not that black fermented stuff, but it is more spicy and floral/citrus. With a slight pause a herbal tea sort of flavor kicks in. There’s a lot going on - it’s like a revolving flavor palate. In the end I think it’s identifiably tea as the major flavor component. How strange this is.

Bottle. Poured clear copper color with an average frothy white head that lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy earthy hop and green tea aroma. Medium to full body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Moderate to heavy smooth bittersweet flavor with a moderate to heavy herbal bitterswwet finish of medium duration. This a change of pace good brew.

Dicht hopfiger Antrunk mit Gemüsenoten. Der Tee wirkt auch darüber hinaus interessant und überraschend voll, wenig trocken, erstaunlich wenig Alkohol. Dann karamellmalzig mit einer knackigen, gut versteckten Bitterkeit. 12/11/12/11//12
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 hopscotch (8215) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - AUG 25, 2011
Bottle… Clear golden ale with thousands of white yeasties and a small, creamy, white head. Pungent, musky, peppery aroma. Medium-bodied with an astringent mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Not picking up much tea in the flavor; just rindy hop bitterness. Finishes bitter and abrasive. Too bitter (without meaningful flavor) for my wimpy palate. Bottle courtesy of darkguardian!

Bottle at Paradiso Dupont, recommendation of Greg, shared with a whole bunch of folks. Cloudy orange, thick white head head. Aroma of (no kidding) green tea! Taste resembles a slightly sour and moderately bitter saison. Nice.
