3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20This was a cool and odd beer. Aroma was very earthy and almost nutty. Almond and baked bread. Pour was a nice spritzy and light gold with a one finger white head. Taste, again, was full of herbs and earth. Tastes like some weird kind of freshly baked bread with a wheat or seed I’ve never tried. I have no clue what dom-palm fruit or za’atar is but I’m guessing that’s what I’m tasting here. Nice experiment and nice to see them do a sessionable beer in this series. Not great, but good and easy to drink. Nice carbonation too

25.8 oz bottle - pours goldish-orange with diminishing medium white head. Strong sweet fruit aromas on the nose, plums, apricots, and bready yeasty notes. Little bit of clove. Sweet malt. Medium-full bodied. Definitely strangish. Not a returner.

Was super excited to find this beer in the summer of 2012 while on vacation in Virginia. Split the 750ml bottle with friends. Very different brew, but that’s what the boys at DFH do.

750ml bottle pours a clear gold with small white head. Wheat aroma. A bit of a fruit and wheat taste.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Sample at craft.. Not my thing at all. Pours yellow with a small white head that quickly dissipates. The aroma has some honey notes but not much action. The taste is really light with no discernable direction. A really boring brew.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Tasted on 5/11/13 from a capped 750mL bottle. Pours clear copper orange with a very thick, fizzy white head that recedes quickly to thin lace. It almost looks like a sparkling wine with tiny bubbles continuing to quickly rush to the top. The nose is nutty and interesting, with some toasted hazelnut, almond, honey, and just a touch of green bitterness. The flavor is a touch sweeter than expected with the honey and varied nuttiness, but no real perceivable bitterness. The body is light with almost sparkling carbonation and a medium nutty almond finish.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20

2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Clear golden coloured body with a copper and orange glow and a very thin head. Aroma of alcohol, honey, chamomile, flowers, light spices and a hint of lemons - not much z’atar in the nose at all. Light-bodied; Assertive effervescence with a little fruit flavour at first, some very light malt and a tiny sweetness - not much grassiness or spices at all. Aftertaste is showing mostly the light malt, sweetness and a hint of alcohol - the rest of the complexity is lost. Overall, an interesting beer for sure, and thanks DogFish for trying a ’different’ beer, but this one is executed very poorly. I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from Wegman’s in Fairfax, Virginia yesterday on 20-April-2013 for US$8.99 and sampled at home in Washington on 21-April-2013.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
A sour and fruity flavor with a watery aftertaste. Amber in color with a white head.
