4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Great nose, decent appearance, delicious beer from start to finish. I have had their doppelbock and maibock (last years vintage) and I love all three. For some reason i got a bit of vanilla in the taste which i thought was peculiar but impressive none the less.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Medium gold color nice head good lacing.
Aroma strait off is very grainy malty, with light sweetness, kinda toasty bready with a distinct malt character, not shure if its the hops but has a unique strange earthiness could be the grain though.
This taste is very malt distinct with a smooth sweetness finish has a very mild citrus note. Taste is pretty chewy and creamy sweet , grainy. I guess helles can have a distinct grain flavor but this is something ive never encountered,maybe it has a herbal hop flavor but with the malt its hard to tell if its that. I would say im enjoying this and wouldnt drink it alot,its sweet, probably to its style,but am enjoying this break of ipa’s

On tap at Oskar Blues in Longmont. Pours darker gold without much head. Nose and taste are mostly bread and honey, but also a decent among of grassy and slightly floral hops, surprising for the style. Not bad.
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Tap @ the Mayor in FoCo. Slightly hazy, golden orange appearance with a fluffy white head. Mild Noble hoppy, pale malty bock aroma that’s pretty tame and boring. A touch spicy, caramel, bready, pale bock flavor. Mildly spicy, bland pale bock malty bock aftertaste. Bleh.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Medium body, medium carbonation. Not my favorite style, but on a warm night in Tennessee, it hits the spot. Overall, pretty decent.

22 oz. bottle shared by Tmoney99. Pours a slightly hazy amber orange color with a small beige head. The aroma was originally sweet malts with soft touches of fruits and herbs. With the slightest agitation or swirling though, this takes on a bad vegetal aroma that is not so good. The flavor is moderately sweet malts, mild fruits with light herbal notes. Orange citrus peeks through, grass and a touch of alcohol to the finish. Like many of their other beers, this is a one time taste not to be repeated.
