3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 bhensonb (7583) - Woodland, California, USA - JUN 30, 2007
UPDATED: MAY 29, 2008 33cL bottle. Aroma of sour fruit, yeast, spice (coriander?). Hazy, light gold amber color. The head went like it never was. Starts with caramel malt. Medium body, virtually no carbonation. Warming alcohol. Slightly sour stone fruits, perhaps with a little citrus. The hop doesn’t seem to come through. There’s enough sugar to offset the sour. It’s really refreshing. Wonder of wonders it finishes rather dry. A little astringent in a woody way. I’d say it’s complex. Rerate on 05/29/2008 at Poechenellkelder. Much the same rating. This is a spicey ale to die for.

Bottle... This beer rocks!... Murky amber ale with a mid-sized, frothy, white head. Wonderful, lasting, creamy retention. Yeasty... breadsy... citrusy aroma. Notes of pink bubblegum and wildflower honey. Decently-balanced, lightly sweet flavor. Sweetbread up front; astringent bitterness afterward. Medium-bodied with a dry mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Alcohol is fairly well-disguised. Lengthy, dry, grassy finish. World class brew that really hit the spot on a warm, late Spring day.
