Bottle. Thanks Jon. Leafy, pineapple juice, some vegetables, tomato sauce! Creamy. Taste is good, light, yeasty, creamy again, little sweetness.

Bottle from FlacoAlto, batch #39. pale golden color. Citrus, melon and flowery hops in the aroma. Initial flowery hopbitterness with vanilla, followed by layers of fruit, like melon and pineapple. Earthy hopbitterness in the finish. Tasty and well balanced.

(375ml bottle shared @ Nische's tasting, thanks Niko!) Pours rather hazy pale gold with a decent sized white head. Notes of rather sweet fruit, with banana, orange, mixed tree fruit all in there, rather floral (fresh and dried), some sweet pale malt with cereal hints, some herbs, touch of clove, yeast has a bready sparkling wine quality and is slightly dusty, finishing quite dry with orange and grass, slight zestiness, a little dry earth in the back end too, light bitterness. Medium-bodied with mouth-filling effervescence. Quite nicely brewed blonde Belgian type thing, rather delicate and perhaps blown out late in a big tasting. Refreshing.

Taste at Trail's End. Pours a clear, golden color, with a big, frothy, white head. The aroma is guava, mild earth, rosemary, leather, roses, and caramel. Sweet and yeasty, with a mellow, dusty bitterness. Light body, with a creamy, dusty mouthfeel. This is a nicely balanced, complex, and delicious beer.

Refrigerated 12.7 oz. brown bottle corked and capped poured into a tulip. Hazy bright light orange with white head. Aroma is fruity, medium body, lower carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is fruity and light malt.
