Sep 14, 2009 Sampled on draft at the brewery. Pours a light amber color with a medium head. Average head retention and lacing. Fruity aroma with faint leafy hop notes. Taste is lightly bready with bitter leafy hops and light nuttiness. Thin bodied. Pretty mediocre.

Aug 4, 2009 Serving: Draft
Appearance: Slightly hazy amber with a creamy, white head.
Aroma: I really couldn’t get anything off this one.
Taste: Some nuttiness, caramel, hop bitterness, and an off sourness.
Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium-light mouthfeel and a short finish.
Overall: Watery and not very impressive. The sour notes in this and the Hells Belle at the brewery lead me further to believe that there is an infection at work. Skip this one.
