jodah52 (47), Michigan, USA Nov 2, 2009 Amber, off-white head. Sweet, almost sugary aroma with a hint of flowers (heather, I assume) but dominated by a solid malt aroma. Palate light yet robust; flavors sweet and fairly uncomplicated. Good, but in my opinion a bit sweet for not having any real bitterness. zdk (178), New York, USA Nov 1, 2009 A very good beer. At first I thought it was lager-ish in quality. And by that I mean yeasty and grassy. Very light, floral and sweet. Finishes slightly sour, some fruits. Well balanced beer, unique offering. BeerChaser0078 (270), Melbourne, Australia Nov 1, 2009 Bottle. Clear, golden pour with a white head that lasts a little while. Aroma is grainy and slightly sweet with subtle notes of honey, malt and spices. Flavour is very similar with additional citrus and herbal hints, as well as more prominent sweetness. Light to medium body, fairly thin mouthfeel and a lingering sweet finish. Not a bad beer but more interesting than delicious. flatmatt (220), Northville, Michigan, USA Oct 26, 2009 330 mL bottle. Clear golden pour with a white head. Aroma is sweet with apple notes, some strawberry, grape, bread, and hints of spices. Flavor is toasty bread with white wine flavors, honey, floral notes, and pepper, with hints of strawberry. Mildly tart. Very enjoyable, though a bit on the light side, and it seems to get lighter somehow as I drink more. abemorsten (65), Norway Oct 26, 2009 Clear and light golden with a small fizzy white head. Honey, bubble gum, herbs, heather, broth and sweat on the nose. Honestly not very inviting. Sweet in the mouth with light acidity and bitterness. Floral and hoppy hints. Light to medium bodied, dry texture and soft carbonation. Tastes better than it smells, but no masterpiece. DarkSong (100), Dacula, Georgia, USA Oct 25, 2009 11.2 oz bottle. Pours a very cloudy golden color with a small white not long lasting head. It has the aroma of malt and flowers. It has a wonderful hay and roasted flavor along with a nut flavor a cola flavor and a surprising nice flower aftertaste. I really enjoyed this beer immensely. stantheman (14), British Columbia, Canada Oct 24, 2009 This is not my beer type, as I generally prefer darker and stronger beers, but I found it quite pleasant, much like a very good pale ale. The taste is rather sweet. stouby (1923), Holbaek, Denmark Oct 19, 2009 Bottle in Highland House.
Golden with a white head, fine lacings. Aroma moderate malty (caramel, heather, spicy). Flavor moderate sweet, spicy and light bitter. Light body. Very special and pleasant.
