Hazy and luminescent with really thick white head. Aroma of pressed flowers, talcum powder, custard apple in the distance. Aftertaste slightly tart, fruity. Tangy finish suggests some oxidation of this bottle.

Hazy orange with no head. Juiced malts, berry, mocha toffee and dried fruit to smell. Juicy body and caramel, chocolate flavors coupled with berry and fruit qualities. Overall the palate was a little thin and the brwe didnt come together all that well. Note: This brew improved dramatically as it warmed.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy orangish amber with a white head. Strong aroma of sweet caramel malt along with a mild hop spice. Flavor is mild caramel sweetness with a little bit of a hop aftertaste and a light fruit accent. Not Bad.

A golden ale with a thin white head, big bubbled and frothy. In. aroma, biscuits and honey malt, a bit mineral. In mouth, very decent hoppiness for a blond ale, with light residual sugar, light citrus, medium bodied. Very run of the mill. Bought at Booze Bros, Reno, NV, August 2007.

50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Mild mouldy malt and light bitterhops aroma, vague citrusy note. Flavour is sweet and mild mouldy malt. Light fruity touch to it with a light bitterness into the finish.
