Poured this into a tulip glass and was immediately rewarded with a big white head on the beer that gave of a fantastic aroma of fruit and yeast. Flavor was a bit spice but very smooth. A nice complex beer that leaves you guessing and wanting more.

Hazy golden colour, big white lasting head. Aroma is fruity and yeasty. Flavour is spicy and fruity. Lots of carbonation. Need to try this one more often!

hazy golden amber with a huge head that practically needs to be fought down. lemon citrus aroma with yeast and the lightest banana note. very soft, creamy body that is medium thin. lemons and honeyed yeast flavor, followed by a light creamy spiciness. dry and almost champagne like. this beer is very smooth pleasant, but full flavored. beautifully balanced and well made.

Bottle. Pours hazy, bubbly amber with amazing retention. Pungent floral, citric-like notes in the aroma, with mediciney yeast and some sweet fruit. Flavor is a melange of layered grain flavors, with citrus fruit, orange peel and medicine overtones. Finish has more citrus, bitterenss and a bit of soapiness. Textured, lively mouthfeel. Champagne-like palate.

Not bad not great. Nice blond, poured a good head about a quarter of the bottle, noticed when I was checking the brewery and name that there are a mess of floaties in the bottom. Glad they’re sitting down and the first glass is clear, I’m sure the rest are going to be cloudy.

Pours a deep golden color with to big of a head. It seems to have a flowery grassy aroma, maybe even a little woody. When it comes to taste, it just goes to show you...never judge a book by it’s cover. The taste for me is exceptional. Not at all what i was expecting from the smell. Seems to drink liter than it sits but still very nice. An easy drinker!

has a yellowish brown body topped off with a slight brown head. Has notes of honey and flowers with a bit of orange. The flavor is quite sweet with honey and toasted malt flavors and a quite a bit of carbonation. $4 11.2 oz bottle.

An excellent brew. The nose is a citrus, floral, honeysuckle blend, pouring lightly golden with an awe inspiring head. The palate is floral honeysuckle, citrus-orange and grapefruit--coriander, and light pine under tones. Remarkable.
