hopscotch (7288) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - APR 27, 2010
Bottle… Clear golden ale with a small, creamy, white head. Great retention. The aroma is spicy, offering notes of chili peppers, honey, wheat and green apple. Medium-bodied and lightly creamy with moderate carbonation. Well-balanced flavor is of green apple with an unpleasant spiciness. Downright odd. Watery, green apple, grainy finish. Not at all my thing.

12oz bottle. Poured a lighter and slightly hazy straw color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of grains, wheat, some spices, and citrus. Mustiness. Tastes of honey, citrus, lighter spices, and some grains. Body on the thin side. Another beer that would be great on a hot summer day.
