tagz (309), USA Aug 16, 2008 draft. pours hazy brown/gold nice white head. great balance of flavors - cereal, pepper, light sweetness. good balance of malt body and hops. finished clean. very nice. kramer (1888), sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 11, 2008 Sample from growler @BCTC. Pours a clear gold body with a wispy white head. Crusty bready malt nose with just a little alcohol. Fairly crisp flavor, honey, bready malt, a little noticeable alcohol. Some risidual corn like sweetness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with pleasant soft carbonation. Pretty drinkable, not the best, but passable. argo0 (6230), Washington DC, USA Aug 9, 2008 (BCTC, growler, thanks mds) Clear apple juice body with medium white head. Aroma is medium sweet, some rye, herbal, light bread. Fairly dry finish, light-medium body. Not very bockish, seems more Saisonlike. acrdz (4364), Boulder, Colorado, USA Aug 5, 2008 22oz bottle shared by IPFreely. Clear gold colored body. Nose is sweetish cereal grains and white bread... flavor is mostly sharp and syrupy corn, honey and oat flavored cereal grains, a little more of a sweet corn note on the back... somewhat sharp but also mildly dry throughout. Good body, mull and thick enough for the style, almost too think at times... dries in the finish, overall has some staleness but it’s quite good otherwise. TURDFERGUSON (1153), Carrboro, North Carolina, USA Aug 4, 2008 From a growler shared at BCTC. Cannot remember who shared this, but thanks! Nose is very malty with a bit of grassy and floral hops. Flavor is similar and kind of weird. I didnt take too many notes on this one, but I know I didn’t think too highly of it. Really wish I knew more about what went into this beer so I could give a better rating. Meh.
