Sep 29, 2009 Many many samples pouring for Marin @ GABF09. Aroma is subdued, not much to write home about, hints of belgian yeast and touches of spice and flowers. Flavor is nice bubblegum and bread yeast to start with a palate cleansing spicy bitterness to finish. Really drinkable session beer.

Sep 16, 2009 Draught at Beer in the Plaza. Blond colored with a creamy white head. Yeasty, fruity aroma with noticeable bubble-gum. The flavor is dry with a soft pale, bready malt flavor, fruity and spicy accents and a nice hop bite that adds to the spice. Light bodied with fine but ample carbonation. Nice and refreshing blond with nice nuances.

May 21, 2008 Poured from tap at Marin Brewing a hazy orange blond with a medium sized white head. Aroma is toasty with hints of bisquet, yeast, and wheat. Flavor is also toasty with some tart yeasty notes together with big malty bubblegum, wheat, and straw. The palate is big malt mouthfeel, with some sweetness and tarts from the yeast. Overall, this beer was tasty and went down well with food. I prefer the filtered version, but would definitely get this one again.
