12 oz. bottle in trade with douglas88, who’s still waiting on bottled Flossmoor from me. Pour is much lighter brown, but in the glass, it settles to a deep brown with light highlight and a spongy foam. Smells nice, with roasty aromas summoning me to stop typing and taste. Taste brings in dark roast coffee, with a bit of harshness from over-roasting. Probably highly attenuated, so of course it’s force carbonated and has a bit of cola texture. But who can beat a name like that? Very sessionable, still carries a bit of alcohol, and then a hint of peat, and finally, some baked apple. For a low-alcohol beer trying to stand up in the same class as Alpha Claus, this starts out unassuming, then picks up some interesting complexity along the way, ending with a light coating of malt on the roof of the mouth.

Draft at the Brewpub, 10/5/07; Nose of grain and caramel; Translucent gold with a small, glass-lacing white head; It is grainy with a slibht hop bitterness, as well as a tart note. Does not taste as hoppy as the description says.

Brown coloured body with a very light tan head. Aroma of roasted malt and very little else. Light to Medium-bodied; Sweet flavours up front with some malted tastes all with a lingering metallic flavour throughout. Aftertaste shows more of the unsatisfactory flavours, too much sweetness and an overpowering cardboard flavour. Overall, not such a great beer, obviously. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle brought back for me from my Uncle from Salt Lake City, UT on 21-April-2007 at the Eastern Shore of Virginia.

Nice malt aroma with a herbal/spice hint. Nice amber color with very vigorous white head. Starts malty sweet, finishes with a bit of offsetting hop. Some sort of herbal/spice component throughout.

Tap. Primarily wheat aroma with hints of banana and lemon. Golden yellow with decent head. Primarily wheat malt flavor in the flavor as well - slight hints of typical banana and clove coming out. Agree with Zim29 that this was more like an Am wheat than a true Weizen.
