Sampled at the Granite State Brewers Fest. Slightly pink in color. Tart but plenty of citrus and fruitiness to counter it. That’s a pretty tasty Berliner!

Bottle from Village Food in Ogunquit. Hazy orange with an off white head and spotty lacing. Fairly complex aroma that mixes peach and tangerine fruitiness with doughy / biscuit malt, some spice notes, ginger, and a little grass. Balanced flavor with the requisite bitterness and a balancing malt sweetness. Drinks clean and easy like something with a lower ABV. There's just a hint of something medicinal here that I have to deduct slightly from my score, but otherwise this is really quite good.

At a tasting, thanks, medium bubbly head, quite clear deepish yellow color, very apealing lemon and mandarine aroma, flavor of tea, herbs and fruits, medium mellow green herbal bitterness. Nice and juicy.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Alexey & Raphaela’s place. Thanks Alexey. Golden with a white head. Aroma of fruity hops, slightly stale. Flavor starts sweetish with some malt, continues with moderately bitter fruity hops. Medium-bodied.

Draft at Row 34, Portsmouth, NH location on 8 July, 2016. Served in a tulip. Almost clear in color yellow. Aroma has a light dusty yeast and fruity, floral yeast hint.

Flavor is shows a solid yeast presence thought out the sip with a very subtle dusty/ straw hint in the center. A very subtle tartness near the finish but then disappears into a dry, abrupt finish. Super drinkable, delightful. Great job in this collaboration!

Taster pour at Sierra Nevada Beer Camp Across America. Aroma is light corn, resin, pine. Appearance is hazy light brown/dark yellow with nice sparkle, thin white foamy head, mild lacing. Taste is moderately strong along the lines of aroma. Bitter along with some fruit. Palate is medium bodied with thick texture, average carbonation and mix of bitter/sweet finish. Overall, moderate intensity aromas and flavors but a nice balance.

Bottle [from trade with Iggywh] @ home shared with Countbeer. Opaque black color, medium sized brown head that lasts for a decent while and leaves fair to good lacing. Aroma is malts, rum, liquor. Taste malts, rum, liquor, dark malts and some roast. Medium body, oily texture, decent but suitable carbonation. Nice but rum is probably not my thing. A bit too much liquor for me as well.

Draft at Tuckaway Tavern, Raymond, NH, 5/23/2016. Hazy golden color, standard head retention. Aroma seems to be mostly the same as the original version with more yeast presence. Maybe a tad more malty hints.

The flavor is bold fruit with a more malty English character / feel. The pine is still here in the finish with a slightly lower hop punch then the original. This is a nice experiment and certainly has the quality that is Stoneface. English ale drinkers will love this.
