Bottle. Large off-white fizzy, frothy head that mostly diminished, transparent golden body, slow rising carbonation, and excellent lacing. The aroma is malt, yeasty, spicy, fruity, caramel, and a bit earthy. The flavor is sweet, fruity, spicy, the ABV is noticeable, mildly bitter, and a dry finish. The mouthfeel is tingly and this is a medium bodied beer. Overall, a very quaffable beer and one that I would drink again.

Dec 2, 2009 I found this far more interesting than the posted ratings would suggest. Big head, no doubt because of the wheat content. Lovely golden color with a fluffy white head. Nose and taste of yeast. Some complex spiciness ... either due to the yeast producing a traditional wheat clove note, or due to the addition of spices. Serious notes of oak as well. Enjoyable despite the restaurant price of $28.

Nov 10, 2009 poured with an off white huge foamy frothy textured head and a boat load of lace. Color is a slightly hazy medium to light amber. Aroma is yeasty, malty, a bit hoppy sweet. Flavor’s about the same. Body is quite thin but ok carbonation. Not bad beer all in all. Finish is nice. Would have again.

Nov 9, 2009 bottle bb 5/28/09 sampled 11/5/09.
pours a dirty dirty blonde color... surprisingly clear. it’s capped by a small white head which leaves behind some random spotty dots of foam.
it smells rather dirty (or dusty) as well... combined with pale malt sweetness, apples, cocoa butter/white chocolate and pumpkin pie-like spices (nutmeg mostly).
the flavor pretty much mirrors the aroma’s notes... still, really dusty, dirty and apple-y. the palate is a touch on the sweet side but seems to dry off nicely when it meets up with some hoppy bitterness on the finish.
a soft airy texture gives the medium body a sort of... tingly mouth feel (probably the best component of the beer).
it’s not a great beer (bdg?) but it is a decent spiced blonde... 6/3/6/4/13/3.2
