tap at falling rock.
my rating can be summed up with this sentence.
tastes like old women smell.
too much burnt sweetness, something floral & moldy. red light brown sticky head. the tartness that the aroma hints at just ends up tasting like wood and roast. gets worse as it goes along. a good brown ale gone bad. rotting flower taste really destroys this.

Nov 30, 2008 (10/26/08) Bottle at Barcade in Brooklyn. Hazy orange color. Aroma of some green apples, bretty notes and some malt. Sweetish-sourish flavor with some fruits, a bit too much yeast and some spicy notes. Medium-bodied with lots of carbonation. Quite nice.

Nov 30, 2008 I thought this was quite good. Pours a clear gold with white head. Its a strange combo of flavors. A little bit like a saison, lemon zest, grass, and funkiness, but also some fruit, banana, nuts, pepper, clove, and bread. This is underrated, I would like to celler a couple bottles.

Nov 28, 2008 Sparky sent this along to me as a bonus, thanks man. I was in the mood for something "different", and this fit the bill nicely. Pours a hazy orange/yellow, with some nice clouds. Nose is almost Christmas-y, spice, figs, plums, yeast, gingerbread, and clove. Dry finish with a nice mouthfeel. Flavor is solid for a farmhouse, the cheesecloth and funk take a backseat to the spice, but it didn’t bother me any. The dark fruit and spice work well together, and the christmas flavors work as balance. This one is underrated, I wouldn’t mind having one to age.

Nov 28, 2008 Poured a gold body with strong white head. Aroma is pleasantly funky. A bit of a letdown upon the first sip. Seems like a mess of fruit, spices, sugar. Just way too busy.

Nov 20, 2008 22oz Bomber. Poured gold with white head. Smelled funky, yeasty and figs. Tasted slightly sour with a strong fig and spice combination. I didn’t think it was as bad as people say it was, just really not my cup of tea.
