Mar 22, 2009 12 oz. bottle. I’m sure mystified, somewhat. Has a "hard" spice nose like some of the more outré Belgians, then a fruity smell which suggest apple cider, raspberry, and some hops, too. Hazy amber body, thin head of foam still stands after sitting in the glass for awhile. Mouthfeel is quite frothy, which seems to favor a light European hop note at first. Fruits bring in some tart cherry, perhaps a bit of wheat in the grist. Malts are nice and light, more to the Vienna side. Some lemon halfway down. A fruit beer with fruits in total balance with the rest of the beer.

Mar 22, 2009 The look is clear, golden in color, bright, and has a white head. THe smell is apricot, wheat, and fruit. The taste is weak, fruits, malts, cereal, and stone fruits.

Mar 22, 2009 12oz bottle from Winking Lizard Crosswoods. Clear gold color with a thin white head. Fruity and creamy aroma, but there’s something else really unpleasant in there. A friend suggested it smells like when someone gets a perm. Spot on. Disgusting. Buttery and creamy flavor with some fruit.

Mar 21, 2009 12oz Bottle: Pours golden yellow, reasonable white head that lowered to a thin line clinging precariously to the glass. I’m not sure if I should but I’m definitely pulling aromas reminiscent of a wheat beer - yeast, lemon, honey, and peaches. If the aroma seems muted it’s certainly not missing any flavour, this is a complex and elaborate mix of flavours I found very intriguing. Very sweet off the top with apricots and peaches coming on strong, making way to unbaked rye bread, and finishing nutty. Chasing late I’m finding demerara sugar, corn, clover honey, and almost no hops. Pulling some points for being a little watery in the mouth, but largely this is pretty enjoyable!

Mar 21, 2009 On tap at the Bluebonnet Brew-off. Clear gold with a decent sized white head. Aroma is of wheat, lemon, and apricot. Taste is grainy with some grain, apricot and wheat. Kind bland in the taste though.

Mar 20, 2009 pours a cloudy golden color with a white head. Exetreme fruity flavor with some hops. Wasn’t a big fan of this beer.

Mar 19, 2009 Tap. Poured hazy yellow with small fizzy head. Light aroma of citrus. Light bodied. Watery with a hint of hops and citrus. Finished with this funky burn. Weird and bad.

Mar 18, 2009 TAP: clear gold amber pour, aroma is malt and fruit. Apricot, malt, and maybe some nuttiness on taste, but I didn’t enjoy this one much.
