A hazed blonde ale with a thin mocha head. In aroma, rather grainy malt with grassy hops, like it was made for a kit. In mouth, a grainy malt with light British hops, so-so. On tap at Istmus Beer and Cheese Fest, Jan 19 2012.

On tap at Grumpy Troll. Hazy, cloudy orange-yellow-tan. Thin white head. Mild toasty aroma. Very citrus forward, but still a quality Wit. Orange coriander all the way. Yeasty and smooth, a pretty decent representation of the style. Nice toasty golden malt balance, almost a touch oily and wheaty. Not perfect, but decent.

On tap at Grumpy Troll. Unfiltered orange-brown. Thin beige head. Off burnt butter aroma. This one is pretty weak. Farmhouse Ale in the Spotted Cow tradition. Messy malt tones covered up with some odd citrus and honey tones. Doesn’t capture any style, just a bad mess. Off funky flavors, this a a clear miss.

Snifter at Grumpy Troll. Thick, unfiltered brown. Oily, patchy, soapy head. Pronounced sweet bourbon aroma. The bourbon completely dominates, really overwhelming. Too thin of a background beer to complement the bourbon. Smooth caramel tones, but really just a straight up bourbon beer. Mellow, mild nutty tones.

On tap at Grumpy Troll. Just put o, quite thick and cloudy, really yeasty. Thin, patchy head. Lots of fresh citrus in the aroma. Probably needs a little more carbonation. Fresh, dry hop tones and a steady yeasty golden malt body. Nice piny aftertaste, but the lack of sufficient carbonation doesn’t work so well. Unrefined, tastes like a homebrew. Chunky yeast leftovers in the bottom of the glass.
