I would like to rerate this beer.
Rastacouere (5226), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Jan 31, 2005 Draft, EBF: Cloudy orange. Strong cookie paste aroma mixes into a fruit salad and honey candies to propose a moderately sweet and juicy mixture. Strong biscuity malt though not in a helles manner. Elegant wheat chunks bring german claims that are quickly overtaken by peppery belgian yeast. Powdery melon and fruits bring some depth into this unpredictable baker’s choice. Superb dessert beer, highly carbonated, foamy and texture. Totally untraditional and as experimental as it gets. Excellent. CaptainCougar (4608), Rockville, Maryland, USA Feb 5, 2005 Sampled at the 2005 EBF: Pours a hazy cloudy dark copper with a frothy off-white head. Rich yeasty, esthery aroma with nice sweet wheaty balance. Tart wheaty and complex body with a little too much acidity. Nice authenticity though and a good beer from Sam Adams. I don’t know why they don’t make this in bigger batches and bottle it, but perhaps there isn’t much of a market for it. MartinT (4241), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Jan 30, 2005 Sample at XBF:
The Lure: Peach cream and an alcohol waft from a banana daiquiri. Enticing if not linear.
The Festivities: A predominantly sweet and fat malt body proffers peaches, alcohol and a canned fruit salad syrup. Ending is very bitter, carbonation and sweetness are puzzling for the style. tiggmtl (4160), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Feb 1, 2005 Pears, peaches, bananas, and wheat with a whiff of alcohol in the aroma. Opaque orange- brown with thin white head that recedes to ring. Intensely sweet fruit flavours with some wheat bite and a light sourness compounding the bitterness in the finish. Light refreshing body with engaging carbonation that prickles the tongue. Odd, interesting and not at all what I was expecting. Sampled at the Extreme Beer Festival 2005.
