Tap at Eccentric. Pours a light gold with a medium head and aromas of apples and grass and dandelions(?). Flavor alternates between tart and sweet hits of apples with a little bit of a grassy edge.

draft at the brewpub, 7.4% abv - Pours yellow-green with no head. It smells like apples. Shocking! The flavori s both sweet and tart with lots of green apples. Sometimes I wondered if I was drinking a cider. The light body is a touch watery. The rather high abv is buried under all those apples.

On tap in the old brewery room next to the eccentric cafe on Eccentric Day (night)2003. Pours a nice shiny pale green/yellow. Bubbly and a decent amount of white head. Smells slightly sour, mostly hoppy and definitely some tart apples. Flavor immediately is moderately sweet and has some green apples mixed in but then finishes very dry and lightly astringent. Apples are not overpowering, and while the beer has only a light body and little malt (sweetness comes from the fructose), it is quite decent for a fruit beer. Seems like their pale ale recipe mixed with the apples. Magnificent for the style.
