light amber, flowery, perfume, plums. Slightly sweet, slightly tart, not the most balanced, but enjoyable. Had potential to be great.

odd flavor, kinda seemed off but I think it was just the hops and Malts they use. Still I wouldn’t come back to this beer

lovely saazy hop nose with a strong toasted malt character. Very restrained bitterness, dry finish. Fairly nice for what it is.

a but thin with chocolate notes, but nothing outstanding. Pretty forgettable and not one of their better efforts.

Lots of aniseed and blackberry and raspberry. Moderately sweet, but not cloying. Not overwhelming. Very interesting as the flavors do feel artificial, but really not bad.

Sampled at the DC Ratebeer Gathering. Pours a hazy yellow with some thin, white head. Nose is BIG, tons of spice, ginger, coriander, lavender, chamomile. Flavor is pretty much the same, a big bag of potpourri, chamomile. Tastes like an Asian massage without the happy ending. Full bodied, herbal finish.

Bottle. Clear gold with a large white head. Soft aroma of citrus and various fruits - lychees, gooseberries, passionfruit. Sweetish with a refreshing bitter citrus tang along with tropical notes. Nicely-judged Kiwi hops.

Bottled. A golden beer wiht a huge white head. The aroma has notes of plum on a malty background combined with a bit of citrus fruits. The flavor is sweet with a great deal of plums combined with medium notes of malt and caramel, leading to a slightly tart finish.
