Deep golden color with a white head. The taste is hops and yeast. Has a slightly bitter finish.

Bottled. Again too much yeast flocks swimming in this beer. This time I lagered it vertically for 2 weeks, poured it very carefully and left enough in the bottle. Well, that makes 1 point for appearance in my book. Chocolatey, fruity, spicy nose. Slightly chocolatey, spicy, fruity taste. A little sourness in the bitter finish. Okay.

Hazy golden beer with a foamy though disappearing head. Sourish aroma of fruit, hay and flower. Quite thin in the flavor and a little dry and harsh. Flowers and bitter hops.

1-Apr-05 Pleasant fruity hop aroma and lightish malt. Good head and lacing. Heaps of suspended sediment cloudy bronze colour. Full of hops, light swet, lacks malt. Light mouthfeel lingering pleasant hops. Too light and undistincive.

Hazy golden color, heavy sweet malty aroma, light hoppy taste, medium body, light sweet dry finish.

Pours a hazy golden with a tiny white head. Aroma is a slightly astringent lemon, with yeast and caramel too. Flavour is much the same, far too astringent... feels like it sat too long on the yeast. Diacetyl comes through in an otherwise clean finish. This beer seems a little "all over the place", but its still drinkable.

Bottle. Golden/light orange color with an off-white head. Spicy and yesty aroma, a bit wheatbeerlike with notes of sweet fruit, citrus, sourness and some hops. Taste of spices, yeast, sourish notes, citrus, bread, bitter hops and alcohol. Light bodied.

Slight orange tint. Quick, white head. Old, dirty, belgian yeast aroma. Belgian yeast flavor with bananna, vanilla and clover. Heavy, doughy body for a blonde ale. A bit too congestive to be that enjoyable. Good, bitter hop finish though.

Clear golden body with white head. Light citrus, spice, and yeasty bread notes. Carbonated mouthfeel with a lemony astringent taste. Good but not great. Too astringent in my opinion.

Transfering data from personal beer file. I drank this beer a long time ago. I’ll update this rating if I have the chance to drink it again.
