Tap at brewery. Sweet and malty with some bitterness and spice mixed in. Semi-dry finish with warming sensation. There was even a touch of berry in it. Wasn’t sure what style it was shooting for.

i love Blue Point beers, but this fell short. It wasn’t very good next to other beers of similar style. I most likely would not drink this again

[cask] - surprisingly light for the style, coming across as more of a stronger-flavored hefe than a strong ale - light lemon rind and orange peel with some clove, banana and coriander - thin bodied, with a somewhat tart and watery finish - drinkable but quite easy to forget.

On tap at Brewtopia ’04. Poured light yellow/amber. Aroma was cherry. Had a "cider" quality in the taste, with minor bitterness and some spice with a grape taste as well.

(draft) Clear amber body with no head. Aroma is light sweet, anise, not much else. Taste is medium sweet, caramel, herbal, cinnamon, spice. Some astringency in the finish. Watery medium body, slightly sticky, somewhat low carbonation.
