Apr 16, 2008 Bottle shared courtesy of zrrbrrt. Poured a medium yellow color with a small sized white head. Lots of suspended floaters. Aromas of floralness, a bar of soap, minty, and bready. Tastes of herbalness, green tea, soap, and floral. To sum this one up; different.

Apr 12, 2008 Bottle... Cloudy yellow ale with a trillion micro-floaties and a small, fizzy, white head. Aroma-wise, I had a hard time pulling anything out of the glass, but picked up a sweet, biscuity note. Medium to full-bodied and creamy with gentle carbonation. Well-balanced. Biscuit and pale malt sweetness; faint bitterness. Crisp, pleasantly sweet finish. Very drinkable... a good thing as the bottle is a behemoth.
