Draft at carlyle. Pours a dark gold with minimal head. Aroma is sweet with coriander and spices. Taste is light sweet and light bitter. Coriander with dirty malt and a little herbal hops. Light bodied with a thin texture. Soft carbonation and not much of a finish. Meh.

Sampler. So I get to add the rating that gives this beer a ranking. I feel the weight of both power and responsibility! Here goes: a bit of lace in the glass (in fact, all the samplers I tasted showed good head retention and a bit of lace). Light coriander note as promised, but not too much. Additionally, I detect a slight weizen style banana nose. Pretty good, even though it’s still in the light range.
