The clerk at Zipps talked me into it because it was $2.00 a pint. How far wrong could I go? Pours a yellow/orange cast with a surprisingly thin head. The initial taste is a bit thin - grainy and dry, but it does finish with a bit of sweetness that I didn’t expect and which helps bring it back to the middle of the pack. The mouth-feel is surprisingly soft as the alcohol is not well covered and there is a brief hint of pears in the mid-pallet. How far wrong can you go for $2.00? beercamel (84), Chicago, Illinois, USA

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 1/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 28, 2009 Bottle - Pours yellow and fizzy with no head to speak of. Smells of pears, cornbread, honey, apples. Taste is sweet honey with a little heat on teh end and just a touch of hops. Smooth and syrupy, but too sweet. There was lots of sketchy stuff floating around in the bottle, too. Wouldn’t have this one again. thedm (3837), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 13, 2009 This flippy top bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a large sized head of foamy finely sized off-white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a slightly hazy typically carbonated orange colored body. The mild aroma was floral and malty. The thin mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish. The mild flavor contained notes of malt fruity and orange peel. An OK brew just nothing special. kwoeltje (1333), Manchester, Missouri, USA
