Pours a cloudy copper with little to no head. Aroma’s funky along with tart fruit and a hint of spices. Flavour’s also funky along with tart fruit and spices -- it’s almost refreshing. Medium bodied. This is so easy to drink -- delicious! (I got no chocolate though -- weird) MesandSim (6168), London, Greater London, England
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 17, 2010 A Mes rate. Bottle at Chris O’s Night of the Gaylords. Murky orange gold with a good off white head. Erm... fruity hops and erm... chocolate? Where? Really good hops, lemon acidity, faint sourness and generally clean and drinkable. Nice, but there’s no chocolate. Ok maybe a very very very faint hint but not enough to call it a chocolate beer. jredmond (1165), New Jersey, USA

Cloudy golden brown colour with disappearing off white head. Lemony, but odd aroma. It’s like a saison, not any choc. Fine ok saison. garthicus (1399), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 2, 2010 Thanks to HogTownHarry. Appearance: Murky, dirty filthy brown, lots of white smegma like flecks. Aroma: Nice sourness, lemon, quite funky with that ’salty’ smell I can never correctly describe. Flavour: Funky and sour, creamy too! Chocolate, caramel, lovely, the mouthfeel transforms from sour to malt during the finish. Very nice. HonkeyBra (1432), Lemont, Illinois, USA

Aroma is yeasty and funky with some underlying spice. Flavor has strong yeast, some sweaty funk, and a light pepper burn. Notes of sourdough, citrus, lemongrass. Some brett too. Really nice mouthfeel. Finishes with a bit of chili pepper. douglas88 (1753), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
