ante (2411), Stockholm (Bromma), Sweden May 10, 2008 Bottled, thanks omhper. Pours ou in a cloudy pale brown colour with a small creamy white foam. Yeasty and fruity aroma of dough, spices, leaves, red apples and cherries. Medium-bodied with notes of cherries, leaves, pears, vanilla, spices and cookies. Smooth mouthfeel. Spicy finish with sweet fruity notes of pears, apples, cherries and doughy yeast. Well-made and well-balanced "hard to categorize" brew. jayg (952), Florida, USA Mar 22, 2008 Courtesy hopscotch. Cloudy golden color, thin sparse head. Slightly funky and sweet, some spice and grain on the nose. Nice earthy aroma. A mild tartness is apparent on the taste, sour fruits, wet grain, nice and refreshing. Another nice one from BFM. Degarth (2356), Tampa -The Cigar City-, Florida, USA Mar 21, 2008 Courtesy of Hopscotch. The aroma is dry, but fruity with husky grains, pepper, yeast and a coterie of fruits that I find hard to name individually. It’s very nice though. The body is a cloudy amber tinted orange and holds a massive, fluffy white head. The first sip is full of fruit, apple mostly and yeast with some pepper spiciness. Has a hint of funk and barnyard, but that is low key and the aftertaste leaves mostly fruit and spice. Very enjoyable. Quake1028 (603), Tampa, Florida, USA Mar 16, 2008 Courtesy of hopscotch. Thank you, sir.
Good thing this was changed, because an amber ale this is not....golden orange/amber pour with a huge head and great lacing....very sudsy in appearance....bubblegum, clove, citrus candy, white pepper and yeast on the nose....some funkiness there as well, very fresh smelling....tastes good as well, just a step below the aroma, not as refined....light-medium bodied, crisp and high carbonation...spicy finish, then melds into citrus sweetness and some funk....good brew.... mgumby10 (1379), West Palm Beach, Florida, USA Mar 15, 2008 Courtesy hopscotch. Pours a cloudy gold color, with almost no head. Smells of a crisp funk and spice aroma. Some coriander, orange peel, and pepper are noticeable. Good amounts of funk are right in your face in the taste. Balanced with some orange citrus, and other spices. Pretty flavorful. Pretty good brew, another unique offering from these guys.
