dkachur (881), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA May 13, 2008 Bottle from TheBeerCellar. Thanks, Matt! Pours a hazy peach color w/ medium head and good retention and lacing. Aroma is bitter, earthy and almost salty. Bitter, lemony taste. Drinkable, but not all that pleasant. Looks pretty, though! Guess it could be called the dumb blonde of beers... looks nice, no substance.
marksahara (73), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Oct 7, 2008 On draught at the ABC brewery. Pours a clear golden yellow with airy white crown. Aroma is light with some grassy hops, yeast, and only a hint of malt. Flavour initially hits you with some hop bitterness but an earthy hop taste and almost no malt backbone. The finish is dry and bitter with more earth and grass in your mouth. Mouthfeel is thin with excessive carbonation. Nothing about this beer stands out in my mind. Not sure how it gets awards for being so unbalanced... ucusty (1210), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA Oct 5, 2008 Hazy gold pour. Off white head. Overly spiced with some sweet malts and an acidic finish BlackDonald (1039), North Carolina, USA Aug 10, 2008 This beer was not one of my favorites. Too light bodied on the palate, some light citrus and pepper spice, with a bit of honey sweet maltiness, with a dirty minerality with the finish of every sip. illinismitty (1449), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Aug 6, 2008 Bottle from Ross. Pours a hazy golden with a two fingers airy white head. Lemon and toasty malt aroma. Light bodied. Flavor of pale malt and honey that is quickly overpowered by the hops (noble?), and they don’t work for me on this beer. Slight citrus notes on the finish with the grassy, dried herb, tea like bitterness lingering (and not in a good way) MaltOMeal (315), Land of Sugar, Texas, USA Aug 5, 2008 12oz bottle thanks to TheBeerCellar. Pours a cloudy, pale yellow with a huge white head. nose if of wheat, lemon and some spice. Mouthfeelwas medium with lots of carbonation and a sour aftertaste.
