UPDATED: APR 6, 2007 Hazy amber with a huge, rocky head. Good head retention with good lace. Aroma of peppery spices, perfume, sweet malts and cloves. Taste has sweet malts, cloves, lemondrops and banana. Also lots of perfumy spices. Medium body, sticky texture. A really good beer.

A murky, hazy orange with a 3 finger head that stays the course of the drink. The taste was hoppy with some spiciness and citrus. Nice and bitter but also sweetness in between the gulp and the swallow...nice ale.

Hazy pale body with a medium sized, off-white head, lasting, nice lacing. The aroma is fresh bread, light banana, apricot, lemon, honey and some coriander. The flavor is herbal, grassy hops, peach, orange, bread, coriander and cloves. Medium/light body, fairly dry with moderate, tight carbonation, slightly prickly and medicinal on the finish and just a touch warm.

Light opaque golden with film of white head. Sweet grassy/ bubblegum, lemony aroma. Sweet bubblegum/banana hints, with a light touch of citrus. Has a late grassy alcohol finish. Drinkable, but not too good.

12-oz. Thanks, Luiss! Pours deep murky burnished copper. Thin white head that doesn’t stick around; laceless. Big tangy tangerine nose riding wave of yeasty breadiness. Thin, watery body and no carb to speak of--makes for a weak attack, but the flavors have some heft to them. Decent malty caramel sweetness under the tangerine and bready/yeastiness. This is a nice little beer but the stillness is a bit of a problem.

Soft copper-orange with a huge meringue top. Took me 5 minutes to open it completely because foam kept fizzing out past the cap. Scent of fruit such as lemon and orange plus some spicy clove. Sourdough and citrus rushes past the tongue, leaving only a slight warming sweet alcohol ending for aftertaste. Not one of my favorite styles but my only complaint about this beer is thin mouthfeel.

Yeasty and spicey aroma with a hint of light fruit. The appearance is golden brown with a thin head. Medium palate with some light carbonation. The taste is nutty and spicey with light coriander and pepper. The yeast flavor is strong in this, but overall--it has a nice balance.
