This mysterious ale calls upon centuries of brewing and human intrigue with natural herbs. In days gone by, these beers were conjured up for many reasons and occasions. Folks consumed various natural herbs in many forms, and beer was one. It was thought that these herbs had qualities that complement everyday life. Today's connoisseur is finding that a swing back to the way it used to be is a natural cycle of life. Some of our modern ways could use a little tweaking and taking a step back into the world of herbs is a great way to start. Enjoy this amber ale with nice malt sweetness and just a hint of Jasmine and hops.

Tap. Pours lightly hazy orange, small white head, some lacing. Aroma is super floral, hints of caramel. Flavor is light plus sweet, very light bitter. Medium body, low carbonation. Interesting.

Rcvd as a gift. Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a clear yet light amber body with a half finger of white head that fades fairly quickly to a film, carbonation is seen rising, and what appears to be jasmine is floating around in the glass
The smell had jasmine, light herbal/tea-likeness, subdued caramel/malts.
The taste was sweet and bready through previously mentioned flavors.
On the palate, it sat about a light, but carbonation is initially felt but becomes better felt as the beer warms.
Overall, well, I think Rock Art did what they wanted to so I’ll commend them for that, and since jasmine is good for relaxation purposes, I’d say not bad in a beer maybe as a night cap even if its a low ABV.

Dégustée en fût au Farmhouse Tap & Grill à Burlington, VT. De couleur ambrée-orangée et voilée. Nez floral et herbeux (herbes fraîches) avec des notes épicées, de grains de malt pâle et de houblon herbeux. Plutôt mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture légèrement aqueuse. Goût floral et légèrement herbeux (herbes aromatiques) avec des traces fruitées (bleuets?) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de grains de malt pâle avec des traces de pain et de miel puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère amertume de houblon herbeux. Post-goût moyen-court et aux notes sèches, composé d’un léger goût d’herbes et floral avec des notes de grains et de pain. (12 mai 2013)

Picked this up at the brewery for $5. Poured into a HIll Farmstead glass ( of course)
A - Dark orange with little carbonation
S - Caramel, ginger and vanilla. Floral as well
T - very light malts, sort of bland finish. Floral and honey
M - 20% carbonation light body, bland boring finish
O - It’s alright. not a bad price for a bomber.

Copper coloured body with orange highlights and almost no head at all. Aroma of toffee, caramel, light hops, some malt and a touch of jasmine - not really enough to fully notice. Medium-bodied; Nice light assertive hoppy flavour with some light jasmine and other floral notes, but not much else - a really mild and tasteless beer. Definitely worth passing over if you find it, even if you like hops and jasmine, which I do! I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Liquor Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 03-October-2009, sampled at home in Washington on 04-January-2010.

Bottle: Poured a deep amber color ale with a nice foamy head with good retention and no lacing. Aroma consists of caramel malt with some very subtle notes of jasmine and some floral hops. Taste is also dominated by some medium full caramel malt with some very subtle jasmine and some floral and lightly bitter hops. I would have expected more dominant jasmine notes but still very enjoyable and easily quaffable.
