| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Oct 19, 2009 Bottle 355ml. Poured golden orange with a slight haze and a dense, frothy, white head which was mostly diminishing. Aroma was of orange zest with floral hops, mandarin, lime juice, yeasty notes and hints of fennel seeds. Flavor was an extremely light bitterness with bready malts, oranges, lemon zest, dried pears, cinnamon, light notes of wild yeasty and a touch of grain in the finish. Light to medium bodied with medium carbonation, a creamy mouthfeel, watery texture and an average length finish.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 28, 2009 Very light notes of fruit with this one. Refreshing and light, much like a cheap table wine. A few notes of fruit like apple and white grape are noteworthy on the aftertaste. Nothing particularly remarkable, but then again I’m not a big fan of this style. JAF737300 (804), Tampa, Florida, USA
