 Silphium (1976), Lansing, Michigan, USA
Aug 13, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Hazy yellow body, lacking the brownish tones the blueberry and raspberry extracts give to the fruit versions. Light tangy nose with wet hay (and semi-dirty socks) and light fermented fruits. Spicy, bready body, ester-forward but light, crisply carbonated. Subtle fruity sweetness. Mundane.

Jun 28, 2007 On tap at the brewpub, Ishpeming MI. Straw colour with a very slight haze. Incomplete white head. Not much in the way of aroma. Subtle citrus flavour (it was served with a slice of lemon although at least that was just on the side of the glass not floating in the beer). Clean and refreshing mouthfeel. Not a great style but this is a decent enough example. Not much else to say.

Mar 23, 2007 Hazy Yellow Color with White Head. Heavy Mouthfeel. Alot of Lemon/Citrus Notes. Overall with a Light Dry Wheat Aftertaste. Nice Lawnmower Brew.

Sep 7, 2004 Festival tap: Candy-like sweetness, like a sweet tart. Thin bodied, just too dominated by the sweetness. Some lemon and cherry.

Jun 26, 2003 Color is somewhat pale light yellow and diluted with a thin foamy head, leaves no lace. Smell is very faint of musty dust with a lemon and sweet honey note. Taste is very wheatly sweet and lemony, vey mellow and easy. Leaves lots of lemon-like tartness and is a bit watery. Feel is light bodied for sure, watered down. Its their top seller, and I see why, its a lighter fare which compares to most macro lights.
