Bottle thanks to Bruce. Pours a cloudy orange with small off white head. The aroma is strong honey, yeast, funk. Medium mouthfeel with strong dry yeast and honey, easy to drink, very nice.

So I put this guy on my Facebook list, and suddenly today he pops a picture of his very first beer on tap at the Lemon Tree. So there I go, for a $6 shakerful. Intensely cloudy yellow brown color, almost no head. A sour impression in the nose, then it’s overwhelmed by a lot of tropical fruit hops. Taste is of a saison, but at first mainly a hoppy palate burn with mango and pine. Now it’s showing some thin legs at the side of the glass. Other impression emerge of lemongrass, and later grapefruit. Despite the high IBU listing, the hops are delivering a lot more flavor than bitterness. Brewer Chris Betts has told me about using Citra and Simcoe, though I hope to find out more about his open fermenting system.
