Jun 20, 2008 Hazy copper pour with thin white head. Very nice aroma with malt, apricot, citrus, and coriandar.Good flavor, with citrus, wheat, mild coriandar and clove; it ends with a very nice balanced hoppiness with a hint of the wine. Very good carbonation on the palate.

Jun 20, 2008 750 mL bottle purchased at Liquor Max in Loveland, CO. Pours deep amber with a small, fizzy, off-white head, somewhat lasting with fair lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (hay, straw, bread), average hops (flowers), heavy yeast (horse blanket, barnyard, earth) with notes of banana, cherry, wine, oak, and vanilla. Full bodied, alcoholic and sticky texture, lively carbonation, and a bitter finish. Long duration, moderate sweetness, acidity, and bitterness; spicy alcohol, red wine, plum, and oak flavors with a subtle hint of orange.

Jun 14, 2008 pours cloudy orange/brown with thin white head. The first thing i get from the aroma is hops and then a somewhat tart fruit aroma, the flavor is pretty sharp it almost kind of bites the back of your throat, it has a very yeasty flavor but no pinot noir that i notice, not what i expected but it’s good.

Jun 14, 2008 Bottle. Deep amber pour, cloudy and with a large & creamy off-white head. Had a soft wheaty aroma with very light citrus and spice accents, with the orange sweetness certainly more pronounced on tasting. A fuller body here than I was expecting, and a pretty harsh alcohol finish that caught me a bit off-guard at first. Quality.

Jun 11, 2008 Feb ’07 bottle shared by Jason. Clear red-hued amber body under a small white head. Woody, dark spicy aroma with a clear grape influence. Pretty similar flavor but with a noticeable alcohol bite. There’s a lot going on here but it’s nothing compelling. I’d peg this not as a train wreck of flavor but perhaps a fender bender of flavor.

Jun 10, 2008 From bottle at the Winder Hotel. Nice wheat aroma with sourish tang, coriander and orange peels with some musk melon and mild yeast aroma. Reminiscent in nose of a Weizenbock. Cloudy golden-amber with thin off-white head. Meidum-heavy body with medium carbonation. Wheat and light honey, candi sugar, orange and mild spice. Alcohol sweetness with caramel. Musky and yeasty, with a mild bitter orange and hops finish. Tasty with mild alcohol warming. Nice beer.

Jun 7, 2008 This is pretty good after what I expected from the description. The aroma is citrusy sweet with notes of coriander and spices indicative of a witbier. It tastes like a witbier with a bite. The Pinot Noir juice is noticeable as a bite after the swallow. It’s pretty good.
