Sampled from a 16oz can this beer poured a murky dark brown color with an incredibly huge foamy brown head that lingered forever and left good lacing. The aroma was sweet lime, lemongrass, sourdough bread and cardamom. The flavor was tart and spicy lemongrass, lime, pepper, bread, nut and cardamom. The finish was long and spicy with lingering lime and lemongrass. Medium body. Odd but interesting.

On tap. Cloudy opaque dark brown with absolutely no head. Fairly subtle aroma, a little overripe fruit and booze. Huge body, low carbonation, plenty of overripe fruit accents, oxidized, herbal and medicinal with a burning alcohol in the finish. A beer that really unfolds from aroma to flavour. Clearly the best offering I’ve had from Uncommon so far. 120512

This was the last of the 46 beers that I tried during CBC 2012. The taste was sweet but rather refreshing. Lime, spices, malt and brown sugar.

Sample at Copenhagen Beer Celebration. Chestnut colour, off-white head. Moderate aroma, lime and dust, hints of lemongrass. Far too sweet flavour, sugary as hell, strong notes of lime, the hints of lemongrass and coriander are not enough to save this beer. Too modest hops. Well, the beer isn’t bad, but compared to the other great beers of the festival it fails to impress me.
