Northeast Bucket List Trip Beer #55. Keg at the brewery. Pours a hazy golden with a large foamy white head. Good head retention. Aroma of tropical, spicy hops, dry wheat, coriander. The taste is wheat, citrus, tropical fruit, spicy finish. Medium bodied, refreshing, mild lingering bitterness.

Bottle from Bert’s Solid Chocolate brown with a huge bubbly frothy tan head that takes forever to subside. Big cocoa powder with hints of roast and earthy on the nose. Cocoa caramel and roast with a hint of dark fruit and earth on the flavor. Moderate lingering roasted grain bitterness. Very serviceable stout, the rye is incredibly subtle. Serviceable drinkable ale that would be more at home in a 12oz 6 pack than this overpriced fancy bottle.

hazy light orange. minimal head. smells like lacto, orange citrus acid, peach, no smoked aroma at all, a bit of sulphur and out-house. This is loaded with peaches, lots of fruit, finish is old rotten cheese, like a european cheese with moldy rind. mouthfeel is thin and oily, not a lot there but the fruit is just really great.
