(Bottle, 0.25 l, 20120704, courtesy of FatPhil) The beer poured golde and a bit hazy. Its head was small and white. Aroma had green apples, sweetness and sun protection cream. Palate was medium bodied and dry with medium carbonation. Flavours were earth, orange, sweetness and low bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet. Sweet and weird brew.

$3 single at Binny’s, April 11. Nice smell coming out of the bottle, a fruity wine with plum in the background. Color is a full pilsener range, just a little rosy in the thicker parts, and I’ve got a good-sized white head that collapses into a bowl. Taste is sweet, as other taters notice, but I don’t think of that as a flaw. Maybe if I had let it sit another year or so it might ferment out a little more. But I do find it enjoyable for a fruit flavored beer. I do get some cork, even though I’ve kept it vertical at all times. I’d have another.

Wide capped green 375mL pours murky copper colored grapefruit juice with off white head. The aroma offers up moldy oak notes, sugary syrupy fruitiness and mild tartness at the end of the draw. The taste is pretty darn sweet with sugary plum juice, table sugar, some plum sweet/tart candy and a sense of sugar coated oak. It does have a pretty solid sense of plum fruitiness which I enjoy. Overall I can’t get over the sweetness and at the same time mild levels of tartness biting at the edge of my tongue. Hmm.
