12 ounce bottle, 3/6/16. Clear dark amber, thin foamy tan head, good retention. Aroma of toasted malt, tinny hops, apples and citrus. The taste is strong tea notes, as in black tea. Weird. Also some citrus, apples, raisin, herbal hops and toasted malt. Thin bodied, low carbonaton. What a weird beer.

12 oz bottle. Aroma is doughy, floral, apples. Pours clear orange with a bone-white head that collapses into a ring fairly quick. Taste is medium level bitter with an interesting apple flavor. The label says it’s an "ale brewed with a natural herb." Not sure what that could be. Pretty good for Leinenkugel’s.

Pours a clear gold with an ample head of foam that shrinks slowly.
Hoppy and grainy and sweet, of some sort, in the smell.
Taste is not enjoyable. Weird hop profile that adds bitterness but in a grassy almost vegetal way. The malt comes across as a sickly sweetish disaster to my palate. Finishes on the grainy side.
I won’t drink the other 2 bottles in the pack; maybe cook with it.
