Nice sharp attractive sticky pine sap aroma. Hazy off yellow sparkling appearance. Big obnoxious shockingly bitter taste bud impact. Bitter sappy middle of the tongue roto-tiller. Terrible soapmix with grapefruit pulp lasting linger. On style, perhaps double or impy territory. Quite difficult, yet does not trigger gag reflex.

Draft at Rupununi’s. My first impression of this beer was that is was all booze and bitter. But by the end of the glass, I found enough malts to believe there were some in the beer. Still, the balance was off. Dark amber body with a short head. The aroma was lightly malty with notes of caramel and bread. Floral hops are more noticable. The flavor is lightly sweet and moderately bitter. Heavy taste of alcohol in the finish along with a lingering bitterness. The medium body has a lively carbonation and a thin texture.

@ Uno’s-12oz bottle-pours a dissipating white head and verry hazy pale yellow color. Aroma is musty wheat, secondary spice, yeast. Taste is musty wheat, tart-lemon, secondary spice, yeast. A slightly spiced lawnmower beer. OK effervescence.

Bottle brought back by a traveling neighbor (as "Jay Peak Tram Ale"). This brew is a clear dark amber color with a thin and foamy beige head that dissipates slowly. Small patches of lacing. Aroma of sweet toffee and malt. Light, clean body with sweet grainy malt, caramel and fruit flavors. Very little hops are detected. The finish is sweet with caramel malt lingering in the aftertaste. Pretty average overall.

Bottle brought back by a traveling neighbor. This beer pours a clear amber-orange color with a thin and foamy light beige head. Thin sheets of lacing. Light roasted malt and fruit aroma. Light, smooth body with sweet caramel and malt flavors and just a touch of bitterness. The finish is sweet and the malty flavor does not linger long. Overall I would not have pegged this as an Alt at first blush, and knowing that is the target style causes it to lose a little favor with me. Still it is an easy to drink beer if nothing else.

Two words, CORIANDER BOMB. Good for me because I love coriander. There are some muted lemon (not so citric) and sweet Belgian notes but the coriander really dominates. Its really not for all but I like it like that. The color of the beer is to my liking as well. Its a completely dark yellow color, thick with no clarity at all. I do not know if I have ever seen a wit so dark and thick. The head was initially large and bubbly but eventually disappeared completely. Got a bit more body to it then most Wits I come across.
On tap @ Downtown Bar & Grill, Weizen glass.

Pours hazy gold into a shaker. Fluffy white head recedes to skim surface. Banana and clove from front to back -- tastes like banana bread in a glass -- a little too much like banana bread in a glass.
