Orange to amber colored, quicly disapating head, low carbonation and no lace. Simple, sugary flavors, clean but boring.

No head on the pour with a nice warm smell of grains. The taste is kinda off and I can’t pinpoint the finish but it’s not great. Lots of grains in this one. I’m not going to do this one again.

Bottle thanks to americanbrew. The smell is caramel, fruits, yeast, and wheat. The taste is fruits, sort of tart, seemingly infected, and yeast. The look is golden in color with a white head.

Bottle courtesy of AmERICanbrew. Cloudy orange color. White head notes apparent. Smells tart with light grains. Tart/sour taste upfront. Metallic fishy notes. Possibly infected.

Bottle thanks to americanbrew. Hazy orange pour with small head. Aroma is cheese, funk, and all types of infection. Flavor is sour, white pepper, and earth.

Poured a clear copper color with an off-white head. The aroma was huge on the diacetyl with some malt underneath the butter. The flavor has malt but quite a bit of butter. Hint of tartness on the finish.

(22oz bottle, courtesy of AmEricanBrew) Pours a lightly hazy yellow body with a small foamy white head. Aroma of sour dough and butter. Flavor of sour grain, lemon, and caramel. Another infected Baron beer… Would be nice to try a beer from Baron that wasn’t infected…
