Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy pale golden color with a huge sudsy yellow-white head that lingered and left decent lacing. The aroma was sweet and tangy orange, lemon and sourdough bread. The flavor was bitter and very tart with strong citric acid and light touches of egg white and grapefruit. Long tart citric acid finish. Light to medium body. Not good.

Bottle: Poured a slightly hazy blonde color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of semi-sweet cereal notes with light hoppy and floral notes. Taste is a mix between some semi-sweet clean cereal malt backbone with some light floral and hoppy notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable though nothing to write home about either.

Draught at Rattle ’N’ Hum, NYC, on January 30, 2012Really hazy golden color, white head. Apricots, acidic, malty, lemon taste. Warming alcohol. Moussy (a bit) mouthfeel, low bitterness. Acidic scent, a bit too much so.

Bomber from Carl. Pours hazy orange gold with a fizzy/creamy head. Light citrus aroma. Med body, nearly. Very nice carb seems to enhance the citrus aspect. Malt is present, but this is more about fruity citrus hop than malt. Nice.

Pours bright gold into a Sam glass. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes leaving spot lacing to coat surface. Caramel and hay aromas. Crisp with front to back honey and caramel. Hint of resin in the lasting slightly bitter finish.
