3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
draft at the brewpub, 7.4% abv - Pours yellow-green with no head. It smells like apples. Shocking! The flavori s both sweet and tart with lots of green apples. Sometimes I wondered if I was drinking a cider. The light body is a touch watery. The rather high abv is buried under all those apples.

Tap at Eccentric. Pours a light gold with a medium head and aromas of apples and grass and dandelions(?). Flavor alternates between tart and sweet hits of apples with a little bit of a grassy edge.

On Tap at Eccentric cafe. Pours a light yellow color with a good sized white head. Small lacing. Very mild friut aroma. Taste of tart apple. Suprisingly high alcohol content. Not a bad beer, but not something I would go out of my way to try again.

3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: JAN 23, 2004 On tap in the old brewery room next to the eccentric cafe on Eccentric Day (night)2003. Pours a nice shiny pale green/yellow. Bubbly and a decent amount of white head. Smells slightly sour, mostly hoppy and definitely some tart apples. Flavor immediately is moderately sweet and has some green apples mixed in but then finishes very dry and lightly astringent. Apples are not overpowering, and while the beer has only a light body and little malt (sweetness comes from the fructose), it is quite decent for a fruit beer. Seems like their pale ale recipe mixed with the apples. Magnificent for the style.
3.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap Eccentric Cafe: Very light body that transcends a fruit spritzer/beer combination. Finishes with malt, no hops, and the apple juice is added in good proportions--I'm not a huge fan but this is well done for the style. The ladies we traveled with really enjoyed this beer.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap: Sour, tart aroma of Granny Smith apples. Sweet juicy cider flavor with a beer-like finish to it. Like an amber mixed with apple juice. This is much better than regular cider and is well-balanced, still maintaining its beer roots.
