My wife brought this one back from a trip to Rochester. +++ Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a bright golden color with an enormous foamy yellow-white head that left minimal lacing. The aroma was strong lemon - tart and spritzy and resembling a cleaning product. The flavor was tart lemon, chalk and a touch of must. Medium length finish of tart lemon and chalk and turning dry at the end. Exceptionally overcarbonated. Ok.

My wife brought this one back from a trip to Rochester. +++ Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy apricot-amber color with a medium sized creamy yellow-white head that left good lacing. The aroma was sour and tangy with faint vague fruits. The flavor was bready and sweet with notes of honey, sourdough, faint vague herbs and a buttery undertone. The finish was medium length tangy bread and butter. Moderately full bodied. Disappointing.
