ryan (1707), Beltsville, Maryland, USA Jun 10, 2008 Courtesy of TURDFERGUSON. Hazy gold body with a tiny white head. Nose is bit too heavy handed with the banana, clove and bubblegum. Some notes of cotton candy, honey and herbals hops hidden in there as well. Light to moderate sweetness with moderate bitterness. Plenty of herbal hops but the seem a bit rough and ragged. The malts are very sugar oriented with mostly cotton candy. The fruit and clove character is a bit overbearing. Medium body is chewy with moderate carbonation.
riversideAK (1757), Shoreline, Washington, USA Nov 30, 2008 Bottle from turdferguson. Thanks! Initial aromas of light fruity yeast, some sweetness from the malt, and some spice. The oddness comes in here, as I start to get notes of salt and sardines. The flavors is salty, musty, funky, fishy. Extremely unusual. Oh yeah, pale gold with a thin head. There had to have been something wrong with this. Undrinkable. brewski519 (31), Morrisville, North Carolina, USA Nov 20, 2008 Pours a light golden color with very little head that lingers just a moment. Very fruity aroma with a scent of banana, lemon, clove and spice. The taste re-affirmed the aroma - fruity and lots of clove. A decent beer by a local brewery but not my favorite that Big Boss produces. drfabulous (803), Columbia, Missouri, USA Nov 18, 2008 Big let down. Expected more. Sweet. Not much body. Very thin overall and felt like it relied too much on outside sugars. hopscotch (4679), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Nov 17, 2008 Bottle… Clear golden ale with a small, fizzy, white head. The aroma is of honey and spice - orange blossoms, clove and overripe, black banana. Medium-bodied and oily with prickly carbonation. Sweet, sticky, meaty flavor with very low bitterness. Everything blends in the worst possible way to create a ketchup-like smell and taste. Finishes bland and dry. Not at all good, but thanks for trying, I think. <b>Bottle provided by whomever bonused it to mgumby10!</b> dalekliz (292), San Diego, California, USA Nov 1, 2008 Bottle. Pours a hazy brownish-amber with a thin white head. Sweet and sharp aroma, of malt, yeast, citrus, caramel. Quite sweet taste, of malt, yeast, caramel then gets sharper and picks up fruit notes. Lingering sharpness. Not bad, but not great.
