Bottle. Cloudy and yellow in colour with a white head. Quite Fruity with notes of apples, yeast, mint, spicy, fruit, kinda toothpaste like.

Pours a cloudy amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is of lemon, caramel malts, yeast, candied sugar, and spices. Lemon and spices come out pretty strong on the flavor. Caramel and yeast are also present. Not much warming at all on this one.

Very very nice. This ale tastes just tart enough, just sweet enough, just crisp enough to make it a great beer. Fairly decent complexity as well, with flavors of lemon, banana, honey, buscits, sourdough, and lemony lemonaid drink mix sugar. It has a wonderful palate that is not bloating but is incredibly lively and powerful in the mouth. $7 for a 30month old 1pt 9oz bottle, I am very happy I picked this one up.

Bottle. Marked Jan 6, 2006. Pours a hazy yellow in color with a huge, pure white head. The aroma is of spice (cardimom and clove), banana, and yeasty bread. The flavor is smooth, fruity, and sweet. Superb.

Hazy, brown-orange beer with dense white head. Phenolic aroma with notes of fish, almonds, malt, fruits and alcohol. Alcoholic flavour with notes of phenols and fruits. A bit sweet. Dry finish that dies too soon.

This is a great beer. I can’t add much more than what other’s have already said. One of my favorites with a complex taste.

ABV: 10% Calories: estimated at 400 C Volume: 25.4 fl oz Glass: Pilsener Purchased at: West Trenton Wine and Liquor, West Trenton, NJ Price: $8.00 Consumed at: home First Impression: I was surprised by the overcarbonated pop upon releasing the cork. It took me a few minutes to clean up and find the cork, and explain that I was okay to my wife. It’s a celebratory ale. Point the cork away from your face, a word to the wise. Herbal, flowery aroma, but not too active. Visuals include a completely missing head, a very large particle hazy body, and a deep golden color. A bit varied in color, flavor, and texture from the typical hefe or witte. Taste is typically fruity, but very well done. It’s exemplar in its adherence to style. Palate is perhaps its best feature. Nicely carbonated with a longer finish. Some hoppiness, some malt, and lots of fruit, but not approaching cloying or overly sweet. Second Impression: A very nice beer, and says much of their (now 17 year) achievement. I enjoy almost everything this brewery puts out, and this is by no means an exception. Aroma: 8 out of 10 Visuals: 4 out of 5 Taste: 9 out of 10 Palate: 5 out of 5 Overall: 18 out of 20
