3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 vyvvy (2798) - Florissant, Missouri, USA - DEC 2, 2006
Sampled with Beerdrenched. Pours copper with a amall off-white head. The aroma has butterscotch / diacetyl with some caramel and spiciness. Medium body with a good amount of soft and sharp carbonation. Starts with sweet malt that’s fairly clean except for the obvious diacetyl. The finish has light spiciness, but the butterscotch still stays around. I would like to try a fresher bottle of this.

bottle-thanks to vyvvy for this one. light copper with a spritzy off-white head. diacytl mostly on the nose with some light toasted malts. not as much diayctl as that hop hog ipa, but there is quite a bit here. toasted grains and earthy hops on the flavors. as it warmed, some light spices came out and the diacytl diminshed. palate is fizzy and over-carbonated. i will pass next time on this one.

Floral and citrus hops are a pleasant counterpoint to the doughy, bready and caramel malts in the aroma. Lightly hazy amber body is topped by a decent white head that persists nicely. Caramel and toffee malt flavour with floral hop accents and light bitterness to take the edge off. Medium body with decent carbonation. Sampled at Mondial 2006.

UPDATED: NOV 13, 2006 Aroma is sweet, sour, malty, and earthy, with some floral, woody hops. Flavor balanced nicely with the hops and malt with some noteable fruity overtones coming out-hop bitterness is accompanied by some almost apple ciderish sweet malt combo with earthy bitter hops. mouthfeel is full. very enjoyable.
