Oct 20, 2009 500 ml bottle purchased at Lukas in Overland Park, Kansas. Pour is hazed copper orange with a big three inch tan white head. Head falls slowly with nice lacing. Soft carbonation floats to the surface. Pretty. Aroma of sweet straw and hay malt, with floral notes and a bit of a dirty mechanical odor. The mechanical odor detracted quite a bit. Taste has less of the dirty oily element of the nose, but is still present along with sweetish honey and straw malt and the soft floral. Palate is medium, low carb but still easy drinking. There was a nice beer in here, though it was outweighed by the dirtiness. I will give it another try someday.

Oct 19, 2009 500ml bottle. Pours a hazed golden-yellow body with a finger-width, white, fizzy head that dissipates quickly and leaves a good amount of lacing. Aroma is malty sweet with notes of apricot and lemon. A mild toffee-cookie with some biscuit, yeast, and a very light grassy hop. Flavor is also malty with a moderate sweetness. Fresh bread and yeast, a light grassy hop, and lots of floral fruits. That toffee-cookie comes back and yields a hint of toast and honey towards the finish. A soft dryness as advertised after a very smooth, medium body. Lots of pleasant malts in the aftertaste along with some fruits, straw hops, and a light toasty cookie. Overall, a very tasty, well balanced, all-around good beer. Solid.
