Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of wood, malt, caramel, and over ripe fruits. The flavor is sweet malty with citrusy and lightly flowery notes of hops, leading to a dry bitter finish.

22 oz. bottle courtesy of Zinister. 2006 Vintage. Pour is clear ruby brown with a 1/2 inch off white head. Aroma is very strong citrus fruit, apple, vinegar (without the sour), and I could detect it easily on the pour. After this initial wave, I was able to get some brown sugar, and almost a baking cookie aroma. Taste is very much sugary raisin out of the gate, though they tasted like raisins that were breaded in cookie batter. Caramel is present, and heat. The finish is some exotic spiciness and another wave of the heat. Palate is pretty syrupy, though served well to settle the big flavors in this down a bit. This beer really came after you - the aroma was about as big as I have ever experiences, and the taste was very ragged and in your face. I am not sure what to think of this one, normally I really don’t like beers that are this unrefined, but this one was really pretty interesting. Thanks for sending this one up Mike!

Aroma is odd for a wheat, spicey with dried fruit and a really light lemon citrus aspect. Large, white head covering an opaque gold body. Sweet and watery taste up front followed by a wierd sour and spicey combination. Grossly over carbonated and very dry. Will avoid in future.

Another shared by Tytoanderso. This is a plain amber. Almost no aroma, just some simple grain. Flavor is light malt.
