Refrigerated 12 oz. brown bottle poured into a weizen glass. Cloudy light orange with suspended sediment and one finger off-white head. Aroma is banana, medium/light body, medium/lighter carbonation, thin small bubble lacing. Taste is banana, esters, some clove, pepper, off flavors, and wheat. A lot of different flavors going on here, not necessarily all jiving, not my jam.

Bottle. Hazy bright golden color, small white head. Taste is suitably funky and dusty. Taste is dusty barnyard. Tasty.

On tap at the brewery. Pours pale yellow with a big, off-white head. Aroma is smoke and tobacco, wheat, and some bitter orange peel. Low sweetness, quite bitter, and a little unpleasantly funky. Medium body, hard, astringent, with a long, bitter aftertaste. Overhopped, for sure, but I can see what should be a pretty good beer. Something went wrong here, though - infection, dirty line, or a really dirty glass. Shame...

750 mL bottle from Ale Alpharetta. Pours a slightly hazy, reddish-orange, with a small beige head. The aroma is candy orange slices, caramel, cinnamon, vanilla, and some light earthiness and some resin. Very sweet and malty, with a fairly significant savory spiciness. Heavy body, sticky, and syrupy. Overall, this is a big, boozy, malty beer. Not very subtle, but delicious, spicy, and thick.

Thanks to John for sharing this! Very smooth and floral nose. The beer starts smooth, floral and intense. Very bitter with hints of caramel and a nice moderate sweetness. As there was no date, I think it is old - it just tastes like there was once much more floral aroma. Very sad. The aftertaste is intense bitter, hoppy with hints of floral remainings, caramel. Nice. 12/12/11/12

Dark amber body with a tight, creamy off-white head. Light malt aroma with some weak hops. The flavor is well balanced lightly bitter. Reserved IPA. Good but not for hop lovers.

Clear gold body with a tall, sticky white head. Light citrus hop aroma. The flavor is clean and well balanced with bitterness in a long lasting finish.

Bottle at RBWG 2014 grand tasting, thanks! Pours a clear orangish amber with a bubbly gray head that starts at the edges and dissipates completely. Aroma has notes of grain and hay with a bit of honey and heat underlying. Flavor has notes of sweet grain and hoey with some booze and whiskey backing.
