| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 25, 2009 22oz bottle; contract brewed by New Belgium. Hazy gold with a thick, fluffy white head. Sweet malty aroma with some grassy hops. Overall flavor is chewy malt, fruity yeast and hop bitterness with just a light spicy, fruity hop flavor. Doughy and thick feel with high carbonation. Now I’m wondering if this is better from the actual brewery, as I didn’t notice it was contract-brewed until I was examining the bottle while drinking it.
