Served on draft at Brewvival 2012. Pours a slightly hazy golden with a medium sized offwhite head. Good head retention. Aroma of grainy malts, bread, candi sugar, tart fruits. The taste is caramel, bread, spice, earthy notes, faint fruits, light tannic notes. Medium bodied.

Pours golden with white lacing. Light bread aroma. Slightly skunky and candied at the same time. Full bodied palate that is creamy and a little sweet with flavors of sugar candy, marshmallow, and a saccharine finish. Too sweet to drink too much of but good.

From a growler at Bearden Beer Market. Cloudy yellow, nice white head. Fruity yeasty aroma. Fruity, yeasty flavor, plus some..is that mint? I get some mint in the finish. Very dry and surprisingly bitter. I get some herbal notes, too. Very enjoyable stuff here.
