Tap @ Falling Rock. Hazy golden orange color with an off-white head. The aroma was very floral and herbal, yeasty, earthy, and some leather. The aroma was nice and complex. The flavor was fairly herbal with some leather and yeasty notes. The finish was very dry. Too dry for me. Herbal/spicy bitter finish.

Draft at the Seattle International Brewfest. Pours clear medium orange/amber with thick, fluffy off-white head. Grassy, floral, lemony nose. Attack is soft but a bit tingly. For the mid-palate, all the same notes from the nose return to go ’round again. Very dry lemony pucker of a finish. The promotional materials mention West Coast hops, but they never materialize.

My bottle (750ml) shared with HogTownHarry, GregClow, tupalev & mds -- courtesy of toncatcher. Pours a cloudy dirty yellow with an average size diminishing foamy white head. Aroma: Wow, that smells great! Fruity, yeasty and floral along with spices and hops. Dry, yeasty, bready flavour with a good amount of spices and citrus along with some sweet malt, light hops and a bit of alcohol in the finish. Medium bodied, nice amount of carbonation. This exceeded my expectations, it’s simply fantastic!

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 mabel (4129) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 24, 2010
[3418-20101002] 1pt9.4floz bottle. Fruity yeast aroma with mild strawberry shortcake cereal. Hazy, bright orange body with a quick foamy off-white head. Light marmalade flavour has thick citrus hops and quite a lot of seed. Medium body. Good balance, refined but still quite a boozy sipper.

2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 thedm (4116) - Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA - SEP 15, 2009
This corked and caged bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a large sized head of foamy finely sized off-white colored bubbles that were and left behind a transparent softly carbonated orange brown colored body. The aroma was floral and spicy. The semi-flat mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start mediumly tingly at the finish. The flavor contained notes of malt mild hops and spices. An OK brew just nothing special.

Huge thanks to Joebrew and Eddieb23 for snagging this one and sharing it! Cloudy yellow color with a medium head. Lots of wheat and hay for the aroma, along with a little sourness. Very root vegetable-like taste (carrots?). Wheat and barnyard dry funk. Light banana. Quite nice.
