Commercial Description:
A Beer Cloaked in Secrecy An ale whose mysterious and unusual palate will swirl across your tongue and ask more questions than it answers. A beer brewed clandestinely and given a name whose meaning is never revealed. Why #9? Why, indeed. A sort of dry, crisp, fruity, refreshing, not-quite pale ale. #9 is really impossible to describe because there’s never been anything else quite like it. Fermented with our 150 year old strain of top-fermenting English yeast.

On tap. Clear golden pour, fairly large white head. Light malt, apricot, fruit, a bit of sweetness, and some dry bitter hops in the finish. Tastes like a very light pale ale with a touch of dry apricot.

Pours slightly hazy gold with a thin white head. Aroma is apricots and a mild whif of wheat. Flavor is Apricot, mild spices (clove, black pepper), a chewy section with a slight metallic off-note, and a grassy, dry finish. Very refreshing, though not overly complex or memorable.

(Draught) Golden and hazy. Medum sized white head. Fruity aroma. Light palate with lot of carbonation. Malts, lightly molasses, frutiiness, bitterness, bitterness, white bread and orange peel in aroma. Bitter and malty aftertaste. Refreshing and boring.

Bottle poured into a pilsner glass produced an off-white head with light amber body. Smells like a bouquet of flowers. Light fruit (pear/apricot) and sugars dominate the taste.

12 oz Bottle -- Light golden color with a white head. The fruit is very present on the nose. Very crisp and clean. This beer is pretty sweet with flavors of canned apricots.

Pours light amber with thin head. Aroma of pears, apricots, and licorice (in a chemical sort of way). Tastes like watered down bitter apple juice. Not sure what people see in this one.
