Bottle from Dunk. Hazy glowing orange color with small lacing type head. Aroma of milk, honey, and yeast. The flavor was yeasty and sweet with bready type flavors mixed with oranges and honey. Much better as it warms.

bottle from naven. An interesting brew. Like a combo of weizen, tripel, and sour. Brett undertones. Very drinkable and refreshing while being pretty complex.

Pours a golden color with a hint of orange - nice. Aroma is fruity, yeast with some spicy, grassy notes. Flavor is sharp, spicy with a dry tart finish. Sour, tart. lemony finish dominates with some mineral flavors as well. Not sure about the dominant lemon notes - should be interesting with some age. Nove beer - I’m looking forward to tasting another bottle in a few months.

12 oz bottle from Hi-Time. Nice looking beer. Almost gold in color. Smell is a mix of fruit and yeast, almost resembling a Hefe. Flavor is very fruity and vibrant. Banana, apple, lemon and spice. There is a sour, lemony finish that didn’t sit well with me. Otherwise, it’s a nice beer.

Bottle from Hi-Time. Aromas of light fruit and candi and spice. Orange amber color with a head that didn’t survive. Medium body with crisp carbonation. Flavor is sweet, peppery spice, a bit of sour, apple, white grape. Malty. Yeasty. Finishes dry and spicey. Words are inadequate. Really smooth and tasty. Clove just developed. Seems to improve with time and warmth.
