Location: 22 oz bottle from Sparrow-Uptown, 4/22/15
Aroma: Aroma of Belgian yeast, lemon pledge, pepper, as well as some floral and grassy notes.
Appearance: The pour is golden-orange in color with a lasting sheet of beige head and light lace.
Flavor: The flavor is fairly yeasty, not much sweetness, pepper, and a lingering bitterness.
Palate: The body of this beer is medium-plus, with a little bit of booze that you mostly get in the mouthfeel, it has an average-to-lively carbonation, and eventually it has a fairly dry finish to it.
Overall Impression: This beer works pretty well. You can feel the ABV a little more here than in most in this style, otherwise, it feels fairly familiar. Definitely nicely made.

A dark yellow, slightly reddish beer, a head is medium and blond. Aroma is interesting, strong sweet fruits and some tropical notes, overally the fruitness is turning to almost fruit candies, mandarin, spices. Taste has fruits, mandarin, grapefruits, spices, some caramel malts and quite strong hoppyness dries the end. Almost full bodied, refreshning carbonation. Intresting beer, the complex fruits are results from hops and yeast, then mixed with spices and bitterness. Very good beer.

Bottle from BarleyWine, CPH - golden pour with white head. Fruity and yeasty aroma and taste, grassy and floral hoppy nuances throughout, some light fruity spice towards a dry finish. Decent brew.

On tap at RiRa. Hazy deep amber with a generous white head that leaves tight lace. Prominent citrus and light bread toffee with some pepper. Medium slick mouth with average carbonation and a lingering dry finish.

Bottle. Hop Hideout, Sheffield. Hazy, pale amber. Thin, dense, lasting, sticky, white head. Bready, toasty, Belgian yeast shizzle, first and foremost. Lemon hop. Peachy hop. Some stone fruit in there, too. Taste is fruit salad sweet. Turns yeasty dry. Pithy, oily bitter at the end. Juicy, oily, easy drinking palate. Finishes long, juicy, fusty, pithy bitter. Lip coating sweetness lingers. Daft easy to drink. Fusty, fruity, and lovely.

Poured from a bottle it is a cloudy golden color with a slight head. The aroma is fruity almost that of peaches and the taste is bitter lemon with some hints of metal that resonate on thenpalate

Bottle to tulip. Subdued citrus and cracker with a belgian funk yeast solidly in support. Hazy orange with head that leaves quickly to leave nothing. Taste is complex mixture of fruit and Belgian yeast with dry finish.

Bottle. A- Biscuits, slightly sweet, malts, citrus, hoppy. A- Amber orange color, cloudy liquid, white head. T- Slight citrus, hoppy, bitter, caramel, biscuits, slightly sweet. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, bitter finish. O- As with most Green Flash beers I have had, this one is no exception. The nose is sweet, malty, and lighter smelling, then you take a sip and there is no hiding the hops on the palate. Balanced well and a good beer, but more resembling an IPA to me.
