SubstanceT (1090), Saint Louis, Missouri, USA Sep 14, 2005 On tap at brewery, Hazy orange with a thin nose, little bits of barley. Rose in the taste, very strong, acidic like and interesting. I actually wonder if this is more of an infusion than anything else. There is a kick of sharpness provided by some hops towards the end and actually it kind of clashed with the rest of the experience, but whatever, it was pretty cool. StewardofGondor (1934), Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Aug 8, 2005 Semi-translucent with a nice glowing orange-copper color and little to no head. Aroma is lemon grass all the way, along with some oregano and lemon juice. A light flavor and almost refreshing, but citric shine is a bit too much and the hopping profile only hinders the flavor by amplifying the twang even more. Tart, bitter, grassy finish. JMerritt (1313), Macomb, Illinois, USA Jun 20, 2005 Very hazy orange-red with a massive frothy white head. Lemon grass and coriander aroma is very striking, with a flowery sweetness and slight grapefruitiness underneath it all. Herby, green flavor, moderately creamy, with the lemongrass lending a certain freshness. Slightly sour, wet straw finish with a flowery sweet aftertaste. Quite delicious and very different. A must try.
