Alisa brought this one back from a trip to NC.+++ Sampled from a 16 oz can this beer poured a hazy orange-copper color with a medium sized creamy orange-white head that left decent lacing. The aroma was sweet, malty, tangy, yeasty, phenolic and had a touch of sweet potato. The flavor was bitter, tangy and mildly astringent with perfume and a bit of earthiness. Medium length finish. Medium body. Blah.

$2.95 pint can from Wine Warehouse. Pours orange with an inch of soft white head. Aroma of sweet grass, sweet potato. Taste is interesting. Sweet up front, a bit like a sweetened flavored tea, but then turns a bit nutty and slightly grassy. Interesting. I almost want to say a bit on the flat side, but I think the flavors are making me think that.

Pounder: Pecan, hay, and earth nose. Hazy copper, medium yellow head. Pecan, brief sweet malt at midpalate, Light body, easy carbonation. The sweet potato comes across more as a earthy nuttiness which is not unfamiliar for the style. Great job.

22oz bottle, I drunk most of it. Poured a mostly clear amber color with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma was lots of sweet sugary notes, sweet potato yam character. Light lemon, caramel malt, lager character. Interesting. Not bad, but perhaps just a little sweet. A touch refreshing with a lower abv that was nice.
