Aug 15, 2007 On tap: The aroma has strong raisin notes, alcohol, and very faint apple. It’s a transparent amber with a small off-white ring for a head. The flavor starts with faint banana, apple, yeast, and raisin. The finish has an increased apple presence with some faint alcohol.

Silphium (1976), Lansing, Michigan, USA
Feb 6, 2006 On tap at Hideout. Red-brown clearish body, thin light tan head. Aroma of banana and clove in addition to brown sugar, dark fruit, and toast. Estery body, with cloves, other spices, and some banana as well as toast and dark fruits which intensify as the beer warms. Becomes sweeter and more sugary at warmer temperatures. Hints of chocolate complement the fruit and spice. Fairly complex with a nice mouthfeel. Well-done.
