Nov 21, 2008 Pours light orange with a white head. Wild yeasty aroma with a hint of lemon peel and hay. Flavor is more belgian and citrus notes that finish with a hint of spice. Very well balanced and well bodied. Great beer.

Nov 20, 2008 750 ml bottle shared with a friend at a wedding. Poured a hazy yellow with a huge white head. Aroma was really nice on this one, a nice touch of funkiness, lemons, yeast and spice. Body on this one was bone dry with very assertive carbonation, not really my style right now so I wasn’t loving it. Flavors if yeast, bread, hay, oak. Rather bland flavor compared to the aroma. I was a little let down by this one especially after the nice complex aroma.

Nov 18, 2008 Cloudy hay-yellow with a large puffy white head. Lots of lemon citrus and yeast, some pepper and must. Flavor is very tart and citric, yeasty, and with hints of pepper and metal. The medium body is complimented by the prickly tongue. Good beer, very refreshing, but not as complex as other JP entries that I’ve enjoyed.
