2005 bottle from the very generous Joeec5 consumed on 2/3/06. Large amount of rocky, frothy hay colored head forms vigorously and is well-retained and provides light lacing, though eventually it recedes to ring. Body is a buttery goldenrod, bottle conditioned and lightly hazy. In the aroma I get stiff butter. Not dry burnt popcorn really, but actual thick, fatty, melted butter. A bit of toasted grains behind that, perhaps some banana? Not very easy to discern anything beyond the dominant diacetyl. The flavor begins with a strong caramel-vanilla sweetness that rapidly becomes a thick, butter filled mess. Oddly enough, I do find the cranberries quite easily, which are excellently done, just adding some light tangy juiciness. Full, wheaty palate is thick and creamy, with moderate carbonation. But the butter is just about all I can taste after a couple mouthfulls and proves too much. I wouldnt consider myself sensitive to diacetyl either, I notice it, but actually enjoy it in most cases. This was just too much, something obviously went wrong. Will hopefully get to drink another bottle soon and update my review.

750ml bottle-pours a creamy tan head that retains. Cloudy orange color. Aroma is wheat, malty, banana, flowery. Taste is creamy malt, clove/spice, banana, hint of cranberry. The clove/spice seems to override the other flavors.
