This draft brew from the brewery poured a very large sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were long lasting and left behind a and a very good lacing. The complex funky aroma was malty. The mouth feel was smooth at the start and mediumly tingly at the finish. The funky flavor contained notes of malt and was sweet. A decent one but not one that I would consider buying again.

Pint at brewery Aug 21, 2006 - Aroma is wet bread dough, lemon, and hickory/maple that make for an interesting combo. Pours light brown with a small head and decent lacing. Flavor is citrus, yeast, and spice. The syrup used is apparent giving this typical farmhouse ale a smokey twist. Palate is tart and creamy. An interesting and different take on a farmhouse ale that works well.

Draft at Mad Anthony Oktoberfest. Poured a off-white head that mostly diminished, minimal lacing, transparent, no visible carbonation, and a yellow hue. Malty, hoppy, sweet, fruity, and spicy nose. Flavor was sweet, malty and hoppy but not overly done. Smooth mouthfeel. Light-medium body.

tap - Pours yellow and a little hazy with a big head. It has a sweet, yeasty aroma. The flavor has plenty of sweet maltiness, plus mild yeast and hops flavors. The body is medium and it’s bubbly on the palate. The finish is somewhat dry.

Tap at 2006 GTMW. Aroma of lemons, banana, straw malt. Overall fairly sweet aroma. Cloudy straw-yellow with a nice white head. Flavir is sweet with banana, bubblegum and grainy malt. Good, but the bubblegum stands out a bit much for me. Light to medium body with high carbonation.
