On draught at Brewer’s Art in Baltimore: Holy carbonation! Poured a bright hazey golden colour with a large white head. Volcanic almost. Noticeable yeasty esters right away. Aroma is very grassy but spicey as well. Lots of wheat and spices on the palate with a certain bubblegum flavour coming through. Some earthy spices and bread flavours.

Courtesy of markwise. Pours hazy copper with gold hues and big off white head. The aroma is full with light colored fruity esters like apricots, light skinned grapes, prunes (ok, not all light colored), pears and watermelon. The taste has an initial sweet malt and graininess that kick starts everything before the fruity esters roll in with spicy hops in tow. The graininess picks up again into the finish along with a dash or two of honey. Pretty sweet tasting brew that begins to overwhelm me with its sweetness after a few ounces.

Cloudy golden with a medium off white head. Sweet malty aroma with coriander a and hops. Flavour was spicy with mainly coriander followed up by roasted malt and yeasty notes.

Botle 75 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Slightly hazy golden with a lively shaving foam style white head. Sweet fruity and yeasty nose. Medium body, sweet fruitiness with a little spices. A little hops in the finish to even out the alcohol. Pleasant and drinkable but nothing real flashy. 241009

Bottle, 7.3%. Mild fruity aroma, hint of yeast. Hazy yellow colour, tiny floaties. Very big stable off-white head. The flavour is slightly sweet, has some straw and hay. A little rough bitterness, but there is a good spicy note. It is quite close to the Belgian beers they tried to copy, I think.

Bottle: Poured a yellow color with a white head. The aroma was yeast and citrus. The flavor was a light body, sweet yeast, banana’s, lemons, apples, oranges, and a hint of pepper. Overall, a tad weak flavor keeps this from standing up to its competition.

On tap @ The Brewers Art. Clear golden yellow with a pure white head. Big yeasty aroma with ample German hops, light fruit and a mild bready scent. All of the flavors are in this one, sweet, sour and bitter and they are well balanced. Medium to light in body with average carbonation and a creamy soft mouth feel. My favorite of the night from the pub.
