RIXbeer (102) - USA - APR 20, 2008
Pours a tiny amount of beer with a gigantic amount of head. like 80% head. It took 10 minutes to pour the whole glass. Also This beer has a huge amount of "chunky" yeast. The first time I had this beer we poured the yeast into our glasses (split with Marc). The second time I kept the yeast out (split with Kevbo). Once the head fades, it leaves a barely visible amount of foam at the top and a ton of sticky lacing on the sides. You can taste the Spelt as long as you don’t pour the yeast into the glass. I swear to god the "Chunky" yeast kills the flavor of the spelt. But that’s all you can taste. In all honesty I wouldn’t go out of my way for this beer. I love this style of beer and this one is mediocre to barely good at best. It has a champagne like mouthfeel. Bubbly and very carbonated. Over all? hmmm At the time of this rating this beers averages an A-. That’s crazy. This beer isn’t better than a B- Grab a Hennepin instead! Not on my list of beers to have again.

Unclear golden colour, huge white head. Aroma has malts and yeast. Flavour is light apple sour. Finishes dry and bitter. Not my style.

DownsouthGav (601) - Greater London, ENGLAND - APR 9, 2008
Bottle shared with Carlus12. Nose of apples and yeast. Pours a hazy amber beer. The taste is tart with some sweetness and minerals. Quite balanced.

DrBayern (1139) - Morehead City, North Carolina, USA - APR 3, 2008
Bottle on 4/3/2008. Faintly hazy light gold body with a medium foamy, quickly dissipating head. Aroma has some earthy qualities, countered by a light floral , citrus, and spice notes. Light body with a champagne like effervescence and very dry, palate cleansing mouthfeel. Not much sweetness at all, an underlying acidity, and spicy bitterness round out the flavor.

DSG (2636) - Tel Aviv, ISRAEL - APR 1, 2008
(3/1/08) Draught sample at Zythos Bier Festival 2008 in Sint Niklaas. Hazy golden color with a white head. aroma of hops, citrus and some yeast. A rather dry flavor with hops, yeast and a bit of bread. Finishes fairly bitter. Medium-bodied.

750ml - Strong, cabbage nose, chalky dry mouthfeel, seltzerlike body. Interesting take on the style. Good.
