Oakes (6823), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Mar 21, 2007 Hazy amber colour. Loose head. Light caramel, shiitake and rye bread crust aroma. Light florals. Very toasty character, with an almost crackerlike crispness. Even drinking it on St. Patrick’s Day couldn’t help me like it much. CapFlu (3254), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Mar 7, 2007 (Draught) Sampled at Big Time Brewpub in Seattle on March 2, 2007. Thin white head with a cloudy orange body. Nose is milky hopped and ever so mild. Orange and lemony flavour. Somewhat tame... JorisPPattyn (4262), Antwerpen, Belgium Apr 19, 2006 Draught Fine white head with lace; near clear pale orange-amber. Sweet, licorice, something salty in the nose, cookiedough. Sweet taste, with juts a point of hoppiness. Very watery, light bodied. Creamy texture was meant no doubt, but not right there in the end. Dull, dull, dull. Faux pas , indeed harlequinn (2746), Tacoma, Washington, USA Apr 10, 2006 A very boring take on this style. I do not know why this is such a hard beer to get right. Somewhat spicy and sour, with a mild malt background and somewhat light to medium bodied. Thin and watery, with some caramel in the background. BillKismet (1390), Seattle, Washington, USA Apr 9, 2006 Bland copper appearance w. a light head. Interesting aroma of Fuggles? hops and cinnamon. The flavor again had a cinnamoniness to it w. a light pepperiness. Dry finish.
