12oz bottle. Thick and cloudy orange-tan color. Aroma has some Hefe yeast, but also some macro malt. Smooth and sweet, inoffensive and easy drinking. Rather balanced and middle of the road for the style. Medium bodied and creamy on the palate. Hmm...just noticed the ABV is 3.65, which explains its watery smooth body and the crisp lemony finish. OK.

12oz bottle. Thin, hazy yellow-orange color with a quick-fading head. Some astringent orange-vanilla laced wheat in the aroma. Hmm..the wheat and vanilla yeast carry this one, there is certainly some macro sugary malt underlying. There is an odd, off buttery taste to it, as Fidelis83 notes below me. Sub par White Ale, Wisconsin Schwag.

12oz bottle labeled Point Burly Brown. Filtered brown-amber color, respectable small head. The aroma is brown-sugary sweet. Medium bodied, some toasty, nutty malt notes. Pretty boring, the chocolate malt saves it. Some initial minimal bittering hops quickly fade and depart. Below par, but still drinkable.

Pour is a cola looking brown with a small tan head. Aroma has some spice and brown sugar with a touch of dark fruit. Flavor is pretty much the same some dark fruit, candi sugar and molasses. A nice earthyness is left on the tounge after the swallow. This is by far one of the better if not the best beers this brewer makes.

12oz bottle. Filtered orange-tan color, light fluffy head. Sweet alcohol laced aroma, rather old school if you will. More smooth than the aroma would have me believe, relatively true to style. Cloying malt sweetness dominates. Lacks a little yeast depth, but overall a nice effort. A relatively sessionable, well balanced example.
