Cask at Get Real NY 2011. Pale golden pour. The aroma is spicy and lightly fruity. A little bit of lemon and citrusy character over a bright Belgian yeast spiciness. Assertive bitterness and a nice integration of spicy hops and fruity/spicy yeast. Lingering earthiness and a little bit of tropical flavour. Pretty nice stuff.

Growler filled at Big Z and consumed the next day. Pours a hazy light amber with a thin-moderate linen white head that lasted through the first quarter of the glass and left partial lace. The aroma is decidedly herbal, not unlike the Ahtamatic IPA actually, with some equally strong spicy notes coming from the Belgian yeast. The flavor is more influenced by the variety of Belgian yeast they used which contributes a spiciness not unlike a rye ale. Malt and herbal hops are also present in the flavor. Moderate bitterness at the finish. Medium bodied.
