topherh (675), Kearney, Missouri, USA Jul 1, 2009 Pours orangeish golden with a thin white head. Aroma of sweet malt and fruitiness. Flavor is light malt and floral hops. nefarious (197), Clarkston, Michigan, USA Jun 29, 2009 ooooooooo.....this looks nice. golden copper color...with a small white head. very mild flavor and finish clean great summer beer. nate2g (814), Brisbane, Australia Jun 27, 2009 Bottle. Golden with a small white head. Aroma and flavour of malt, fruit and metallic notes. The flavour is malt and fruit. Low bitterness and finishes dry. Great name but the beer is disappointing. thechandler (260), West Virginia, USA Jun 24, 2009 Better than I expected. Tastes like a Belgian-style beer. Alcohol flavor. Sweet and malty. Vanilla, etc. Very solid. gunnar (290), Sandnes, Norway Jun 20, 2009 Pours golden with a moderate frothy off-white head. Not much noticeable aroma here, malt perhaps...Most fun to read the label, taste is very hoppy, no coconut there, surely no swallows either. Boring jtodd5dot1 (9), Marina, California, USA does not count Jun 15, 2009 This brew poured a light copper yellow with basically no head at all. Lots of carbonation that lasted through the end of the glass. Flavor was watery with a little bit of malt sharpness and a very understated hops bite Vertical Bacon Strips (581), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Jun 14, 2009 And now - a man with TWO recorders up this nose!.....hahah Python nerdiness...A brilliant orange brew that produced a huge light tan cap with excellent retention and leaving a fairly dirty glass. Zero effervecence. The aroma come quick with a very soft peach / orange mix, bready malts, hops and honey (?). Fragrant and floral as well. Once warmer, the smell is mainly malts. Taste for me was obvious - floral hops. Some sourness and so-so malt content. Too bad that I find the sour flavour annoying enough to leave a negative impression. Light medium bodied with ok carbonation. The bitterness is almost metallic. Bitter finish as expected. The mouthfeel is pretty good but the underlying sourness has really turned me of of this beer. CanIHave4Beers (561), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Jun 12, 2009 An old favorite from years gone by, lets see how I like it now. Pours as I remember with the big fluffy white head and a decent lace, clear with a deep golden color. Aroma is soft and malty with a bit of herbal hop presence. Flavor has a nice bright maltiness, there is an odd familiar flavor, sweet and fruity that I can’t put my finger on, like an odd candy that I like but I just can’t identify at the moment! The hoppiness is very present and somewhat herbal in a sort of grassy way but it’s fairly well muted and seems to be more in the mix for balance than for a particular hop character. This is a nice little subtle beer, nothing to flip a lid over but I like it about as much as I ever did.
