Bottle @ Armin’s apartment, thanks to lousillimanedmondsgoose. MA Homer of the Month release (Oct 2013 release). Pours a cloudy, slightly dark, bright orange appearance with a nice off white head. The brett comes through in the nose with some plastic but also a bunch of tropical fruits (passionfruit, mango, guava). Somewhat tart. Soft mouthfeel. Minimal bitterness and sweetness. Tons of bright fruit: peach, passion fruit, pineapple, mango. Definitely get a bit more plastic in the flavor. Overall pretty refreshing and dry. My name is Silliman Sy and I approve of this UMass Homer release.

750ml bottle I picked up at Julio’s. Pours a clear gold with some creamy, white head. Nose is awesome, tropical fruit, lime, pineapple, pungent but not aggressive, floral, wet grass. Flavor is grassy, malty, light pepper, tropical fruit, key lime, zesty chive, garlic scape. Dry, spritzy finish. Really excellent.

Bottle courtesy of AirForcehops. Thanks for helping me get this one off my want list! Funky Belgian yeast, fruity bready malt and spicy floaral hops aroma. Cloudy golden yellow with a large creamy white head. Sweet fruity bready malt, Belgian yeast, and spicy grassy hops flavor. Medium creamy body, moderate carbonation, slightly dry finish. I will admit that this rating may have taken a hit since I had just previously rate Anchorage Bitter Monk.

750 ml bottle purchased @ Julio’s Liquors. Bright hazy yellow color with thick bubbly head. The nose is a nice mix of grassy and floral notes with a touch of yeast. Flavor is yeast upfront with the floral and grassiness hitting the back of your taste buds with medium amount of bitterness. Dry and crisp texture. Overall a nice hybrid style.

Bottle. Funky lemon malt and alcohol aroma. Golden yellow with minimal head. Sweet, funky lemon malt and bitter herbal flavor with a moderate alcohol finish. Unsurprisingly on the boozy side but overall very nice.

Bottle shared by Brian at tasting at my house. Pours cloudy grapefruit juice with white head. Nose and taste of orange zest, saison yeast, lemongrass and grapefruit rind/citrus. Medium body. Nice marriage of the two styles.
