| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 25, 2009 This poured hazy and light golden in color with a white head that faded gradually. The aromas were of lemon rind, grapefruit, pine and some spice. In the mouth it is light-bodied with lots of carbonation and tartness. The finish turns dry and maintains the bitter tartness from the front of the palate. SHANER4 (371), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 19, 2009 bottle - poured hazy straw color with massive foaming head. It’s like a rabid dog!!!
Aroma - ripe green apples, lemon, wheat and yeast.
Flavor - very little taste, some yeast and mild wheat flavor with alittle spice,
Palate - light mouthfeel with above average carbonation. Finish is lemony with no aftertaste.
Overall - This beer is like drinking a kiddie cocktail. Too expensive for lack of flavor!!!! gbdub (73), Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 18, 2009 On tap at Blue Tractor. Cloudy amber-orange with a minimal white, sticky head. Yeasty, fruity, sour aroma. Taste has similar notes, a little sweet and sticky at first but finishing nicely dry and hoppy. Plenty of fruity tartness and a little of the trademark "funk", though this is not as pronounced as in some other JP brews. Quite nice. daknole (2883), Plantation, Florida, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 15, 2009 Bottle. Deep golden color with a decent sized white head. Funky aroma, vinegar, tart apples, lemons, and old baseball glove leather. Flavor hits with a pretty good dose of hops and tartness. Some wood notes are evident along with the hops. Beershine, I fail to enjoy this style..again. But I will keep trying...I guess! ryanknock (150), San Francisco, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 9, 2009 Really rough barnyard character to this one. Light, bitter, dry and slightly vinegar like aspect, it was tough to put down at first, but once the tartness starts to build up after a few sips, you can get the complexity of the beer behind it, notes of vanilla, oak, toast Lagunitasfan (433), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Feb 3, 2009 Shared at Ryans for Superbowl. Beautiful in the glass. Bright amber with insane head. Champagne bubbly that settled to thick sweet monster. Smell was sweet/sour and hoppy. Tantalizing. Flavor was a bummer compared to the rest. Quick bite of sharpness and sharp fruitiness poofed to empty mouth. Some aspirin leftovers. My bottle didn’t taste like some of the other raters here. elihapa (1051), Honolulu, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 2, 2009 Bomber. Pours gold with a huge frothy head. Aroma of wheat, lemon bar, candy sugar, and bubble gum. Flavor is initially bready, with some mild lemon-apple notes. Lovely, pearly mouthfeel throughout. Mid-palate builds tart flavors of pear and orange. Finish is very refreshing and crisp from the tartness, and complex by the bready fruit. This beer is very well-balanced and expertly crafted. jkwalking05 (1483), Arlington, Texas, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 30, 2009 Thick creamy white head. Complex spiced smells of apple, fruits, and other spices. Retains it head very well. Cloudy yellow to orange color. Flavor is slightly sour and fruity with a hop edge.
