Faint notes of cream, hops, and sweet orange. The finish is cloudy and textured and reminds me of what Orange Blossom used to be. 17thfloor (1453), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 23, 2008 Updated: Dec 24, 2008Pours a darker orange golden with small fine frothy white head. Aroma isnt particularly strong, sweet candi malt, orange peel, and grassy hops, almost seems like there is some coriander in there. First taste is quite bitter, some vitamin C, grassy and floral hops, light candi malt, some orange peel, lemon-grass and yeast. Finishes quick, dryer and bitter. Lighter mouthful, soft abundant fine carbonation, very light. Drink4Satan (585), Bristol, Rhode Island, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Dec 23, 2008 Pours a hazy golden colour with a soapy white head that has moderate retention. The nose is pleasantly fruity, with lemon zest, earthy, grassy hops and sugary doughy malts. The flavour is zesty, lightly fruity and bready with some farmhouse tartness just barley coming through in the finish. It is pleasant, drinkable and round on the palate. The carbonation could not be any better, being effervescent only on the palate and not in the appearance. A slightly slick and full mouthfeel also contribute to create a perfectly palatable beer. The finish is crisp, with spice, zesty hops and bready malts lingering for some time. kegbear (268), Orange, California, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 12, 2008 750ml bottle from the Sam-apostrophe-s in Downers Grove, IL. It pours a slightly hazed golden body with a somewhat rocky head that disappears in odd clumps. Spotty lacing. The aroma is honey sweet covered by dried lemon grass and citrus zest. Sprtitz mouthfeel. It tastes of sweet malt, herbs and warm spices, and a growing lemon zest bitterness. Not bad. Would be refreshing in warmer times. jcwattsrugger (5223), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 7, 2008 Monks Cafe Philadelphia in company of Loz Casey and Traci, 15-11-08. Pours hazy golden with white head, though in the confines of a back bar that resembles the Bat cave for gloominess its difficult to see. In fact it was that dark in this place that I couldnt even see to write my notes and had to dictate them to Loz who has better eyesight than me. Nice soft lemony flavours and aromas, good farmhouse feel to this, plenty of yeast, drying at the end. Very nice beer. ante (2928), Stockholm, Sweden

Dried oranges, mild herbal hops and cookies in the aroma. Medium-bodied with notes of yeast, dried oranges, crackers amd cookies with crisp and fresh notes of grassy, herbal and citrousy hops. Dryish medium-bitter finish of grass, herbs, mild white pepper and cookies. A well-made, balanced brew
