Extremely bizarre mixed condiments and luncheon meat in the rather unappealing aroma. Clear orange-copper with thin, white, fully-diminishing head. Overly sweet, minty flavour is not what the aroma suggests but really is no more appealing. Medium body, low carbonation with slick texture in the mouth. Sampled at the Extreme Beer Festival 2005.

Smells like a mayonnaise hot dog, tastes like a mayonnaise hot dog. Fortunately doesn’t look like a mayonnaise hot dog.

Sample at XBF:

Sadly, aroma is of a strange mix of relish and mayonaise, strangely reminiscent of a hot dog with sauerkraut. Obviously a mistreated sample as I wasn’t the only one thrown off by the sample. It can’t be like this all the time, but the sample I had was. Hopefully I can get it another time and rerate.
