I was expecting some kind of amber ale and when I tasted this I was pleasantly surprised by it’s enjoyability. The smell is an off beery aroma. The look of this is somewhat like cloudy iced tea. On the palate it provides an above average creamy carbonation. The taste is haylike and fun without any bitter unsavoriness. I find it rather likable with farmlike attributes. Overall almost pleasurable and even perhaps repeatable. Pleased to have sampled this brew.

Pours a clear and dark copper color with a medium thin light tan head. Thin, spotty lacing. Aroma of sweet malt and sour fruit. Medium-bodied and much more tart than most Viennas. Tart/sour fruit overpowers the toasted malt and caramel flavors. Still, I was able to drink it. The beer either does not translate well, or is actually trying to be more like a Flemish Sour. The finish is fruity and tart, with a hint of vinegar. Below average, no matter what the reason it tastes like it does.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a red-amber color with a small yellow head. The aroma was lightly malty and vaguely vegetal. The flavor was bitter, tangy and vinegary with a bitter finish. Pretty blah.

Orange body, hazy, medium off-white head. Toasty aroma with caramel, earthy hops, and a touch of diacetyl. Rather sharp, tart body, with caramel and lemony fruit in addition to biscuits and notes of butterscotch. Acidic and a bit funky.
