bottle - Pours gold and very bubbly with a huge white head. The aroma is lacking. I’m just getting some mild grain. The flavor is moderately sweet with some fruit character. Overcarbonated. It’s light bodied and fairly good for what it is, a simple summer beer.

Bottle on Amtrak Train 27 - The Empire Builder ( from Binny’s South Loop) - 04/11/12. Obscured golden yellow with a big frothy white head that retains well. Nose comprises slightly sour fruits, plasticine, paint, light yeast. Tastes of wheat, fruit, lemon, herbs, candied orange peel. Medium bodied with light spritzy carbonation leading to a tarte and fruity finish. Below average.

12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods Market Indianapolis. Pours a hazy golden with an explosive head. Not a gusher from the bottle thankfully but the rocky white head is so huge this is taking forever to pour. Aroma of bread, spice, butter, corn. The taste is almost champagne-like... grapes, apples, bread, spices. Tart finish. Doesn’t smell great and annoying as heck, but I’m actually liking the taste.

Poured from 12 oz bottle, enjoyed after a Blackhawks win! Aroma is mostly of cloves and spices, not really my cup of tea. Appearance is practically yellow with little to no head. Great aftertaste, of light banana and cloves with those backing spices that give it a nice but not overpowering kick.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy pale gold with a thin white head. Aroma is full of wheat and yeast notes as well as a strong metallic aroma. Flavor is weak with a bit of wheat, a bit of citrus and yeast.

Hazy blonde colour. Aroma of lemon, coriander, light maltiness. Sweet and soft with a flowery, honeyish nature and nutmeggy accent.
