GuilTTy (686) - Cherry Hill, New Jersey, USA - JUL 25, 2006
Sampled at the Atlantic City, NJ beer festival. Light chestnut pour under a small dusky white head. Yeasty aroma with roasted malt, molasses and overripe fruits. Solidly malty flavor with a nice mix of fruity sweetness and yeasty, bready notes along with some toffee and pepper. Silky mouthfeel and a warming finish. I would buy this every now and then if it were available in bottles.

jb (1540) - Rochester, New York, USA - JUL 3, 2006
Interesting - seemed like a belgian tripel. Pale yellow, citrus and wheat notes. Palate whallops you with a boozy taste like they really did fortify the beer with it. Since this was my last beer of the night I may be underrating it.

Gr0ve (1763) - Oslo, NORWAY - JUN 7, 2006
1 pint draught, The Gingerman, NYC. Slightly hazy and golden in colour. Rich malty and wheaty. Medium-bodied. On the sweet side, but not too much either as it is easily drinkable in sizeable amounts. Dry aftertaste.

gaelone (1) - USA - JUN 7, 2006 does not count
On tap at The Office. Served in a frosted pint glass (too large and cold for the style). Hazy dark yellow color with a soft, white head, aroma was very inviting, spiced. Excellent deep malt presence, but balanced by the yeast (spice) and hop character. Finish is dry and lightly hoppy.

Cletus (6025) - Connecticut, USA - JUN 3, 2006
On draught at Gingerman in Greenwich. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Smells lemony with nice underlying tea like hoppy elements. Tastes hoppy with grass, lemons, and a defined sweet malt character. Finish is light and tingly.

Draught. Light hazy yellow colour with a white head. Fruity, light spicy aroma and a sweet fruity, honey, ashtray, hoppy taste. Medium body with a light sweet, bitter dry finish.
