Bottle shared by gendv138 at Bluejacket during Travlr’s 10k celebration. Thanks Donnie! Poured a hazy orange color with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma was some yeast notes, rye spice notes, some earthy hops. Flavor was yeasty, with rye, hops.

Draught at Tip Tap Room, 4/13/14
Dark amber-cherry colored beer with a small, light beige head that shows moderate to poor retention.
Soft, fruity hoppiness in the nose shows off light ruby red grapefruit, oranges, cherries and some spicy rye notes as well. Touches of pale and carramel malts with an odd buttery-sweet note that must be from the turbinado (it’s not diacetyl). Some light fruity yeast esters and moderate phenolics are notable but nothing is too strong or overbearing here.
The mouthfeel is pretty tight on this, with a soft, malty texture and engaging carbonation. Another one of their hoppy pale and saison hybrids and but for the strange peanut butter and banana note (about as close as I can get to describing it), it works pretty well. Hoppiness is fruity, lightly bitter and well done as always from Trillium. A bit on the sweet side, the creaminess sort of exacerbating that. Good, but what the hell is that strange peanut buttter-banana note?

Draft at Trillium Brewing poured into a mini-snifter as part of their tasting. Pours a dark caramel brown with off-white head. Aromas of grapefruit citrus. Tasting notes of grapefruit citrus, hops, spices. Medium body with a dry finish.

Sampled at the brewery. Pours a hazy amber with some frothy, creamy white head. Nose is nice, soapy, orange, perfume, yeast, some spice. Flavor is spicy, mild booze, some grain, orange, some bread crust, some cheese rind. Slightly hot finish. A little messy.

Pours deep hazy copper gold into a tulip. White head with little retention recedes to nothing. Yeast and pit fruit aromas. Soft with sweet summer fruit, caramel and yeast front to back. Lasting bitter tropical fruit finish.
