porterhouse (928), Alna, Maine, USA Mar 2, 2008 (375 ml bottle from <A HREF=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/maine/scarborough/oak-hill-beverage-and-redemption-center/3575.htm target=blank>Oak Hill Beverage) Not bad...Pours clear light yellow with a very tall somewhat foamy white head. Lightly malty (honeyish but not quite) and hoppy (slightly piney) aroma. Mouthfeel quite full, pretty smooth, not bad. Flavor is lightly sweet and malty (like aroma it is honeyish but not quite) with a medium bitterness overlaying with provides a nice little bite in the finish. Litle bit of an alcohol burn in the finish. Kind of like a heller bock. Nothing really remarkable but not much to complain about except slightly lacking in flavor.
rocbyter (638), Waterbury, Connecticut, USA Sep 2, 2008 light grain aroma with hints of fruity yeast. Hazy yellow color with a large white head that quickly diminishes. Mild sweet malt beginning that fades in the finish. Chewy palate. Angeloregon (1898), Portland, Oregon, USA Aug 24, 2008 Small corked bottle called "Krait Champagne Lager" purchased at John’s Market Place in Portland, OR--Poured a bright orange golden bubbly body with a medium-to-thick white head. Fruity esters in the nose. Apples, pears, oranges, and alcohol. Earthy, spritzy sharp mouthfeel. Mildly tangy and tart with a nice fruit backing. The only problem was the mild cardboard flavor. Probably a bit old. Not nearly as bad a beer as I was anticipating. BuckeyeSammy (363), New York City, New York, USA Aug 15, 2008 Way over-priced at 12$. Fruity nose of pear, sweet toffee. Appearance is unimpressive, much like applejuice, without much of a head. Heavily carbonation full of spice, alcohol completely hidden. Awful name. oh6gdx (5904), Vaasa, Finland Aug 7, 2008 Bottled. Golden colour, not much of a head. Aroma is alcohol, some fruity sweetness as well as mild notes of earth. Flavour is quite much the same, in a bad way, as the beer is totally out of balance and also quite harsh. gam (529), brisbane, Australia Aug 3, 2008 Medium head on a yellow coloured lager,good carbonation.Aroma fruit like pear,sweet hops strong.Flavour malt mild bitter,fruit taste and sweet,yeast fermentation flavour very noticeable gives it a slight Belgian ale (strong) taste,hintsd of spice and herbs,nut not as good as Belgians.Fig note,orange coriander,finish dry sweet.
