blklab2007 (943), Connecticut, USA Mar 7, 2008 Updated: Mar 14, 2008750 bottle with a cool label poured a nice golden in color with a thick initial head falling back to become a thin layer with nice lacing. aroma has spicy yeast, caramel, sweet fruit, spice, and barnyard funk. mouth feel is on the thin side with a nice coating of the tongue. flavor hits with spiced yeast, malt, hay and grass. hops become present, good barnyard funk, and finishing with light sweetness on the dry side. a touch of bitterness and fruit top it off. real nice beer towards the spiced side just lacking body. AmEricanbrew (1747), Louisiana, USA Mar 3, 2008 Amber color with a white head. Nice smell is earthy, grainy with a bubble gum sweetness. Medium bodied. Has a mildly sweet pale malt, spicy yeasty flavor. Finish is on the dry side. Nice label shows a troll holding a brewski...Enjoyable. 5197 LyndaNova (492), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA Mar 3, 2008 Cold 750ml bottle: Pours a bright orange color inundated with stationary sediment nuggets and a moderate sized creamy ivory head. Aroma is of nice farmhouse, sweet malts and citrus fruit with a hint of spice. Taste is of light malts well blended with subtle earthy hops, lemon, honey and spice. Slightly crisp with a creamy texture and good carbonation. Ending is of a nice mix of subtle bitter and sweet notes. ~YUMMY~ Thanks Volgon!

Light sweet, pineapple, spices, light bitter. Nice flavor but a bit thin mouthfeel. To me it’s like a mix between Saison and a Triple. joss (3634), Garching b.
