 frylock (1001), Buffalo, New York, USA
Dec 1, 2003 Pale golden color with a small white head. Yeasty, doughy, salty aroma. Dry yeast flavors with a slighty hoppy spiced finish.
Cobra (1060), In a van, down by the river, Maryland, USA
Nov 15, 2003 750 ml. corked & caged bottle. Expired on 10.12.02, so it's 13 months out of date. Let's see how it stacks up. Poured out a brilliant golden yellow color, with not much head to speak of. Aromas mostly of lemons, so I believe this bottle has gone south on me. Not much in the way of hop aromas here. I can't really smell anything but lemons, and maybe canned pears in heavy syrup. Tasted ok, but nothing special. Maybe I'll try another one if I can find it fresher.
maltdog (510), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
Nov 9, 2003 Slightly hazy, traffic light amber with a frothy head. Aroma is sharp and spicy, cashews, sea spray, maybe buckwheat honey. The taste is also spicy, zesty sourdough bread, damp earth, and a quick flash of bitterness. Well-carbonated even after head collapses. Dry finish with peppery alcohol burn. Interesting, but I wouldn't buy another.

Nov 7, 2003 Glowing orange-copper brew with no head out of the bottle (dated 04-04-04). Carbonation is minimal. The alcohol dominates the aroma and flavor. There seems to be something interesting going on underneath, but I just can seem to get to it. Too bad. I expect better from these guys! NOTE: Livened up a tad after pouring into another glass, agitating it a bit.
Suttree (2701), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
Nov 5, 2003 Updated: Nov 6, 2003Cloudy Orange, with a densly carbonated head that shrinks down to a nice sized foam island in my chalice. Smells of pears, oak, and...alcohol. . Woodsy hops up front and alcohol dominates the finish, with some subtle notes in the background - black pepper, some very restrained sweetness, and may be some breadiness. Not bad, but I wish the alcohol were better hidden.

caesar (3020), Bunnik/Utrecht, Netherlands
Oct 28, 2003 Cloudy yellow golden color, medium white frothy head. Spicy and slightly cheesy yeast aroma, hint of banana also. Spicy and yeasty taste. A triple with a hefeweizen undertone, more comparable to the Hoegaarden Grand Cru.
