savnac (393), Palmer, Alaska, USA Oct 8, 2009 On tap @ DuClaw Fells Point. Clear amber/gold with a tiny white head. Huge spicy, herbal yeasty aroma. Mostly sweet flavor of sugar and malt with just a bit of sourness in the finish, well balanced. Medium body and a smooth finish and mouth feel. Great aroma in this one, the flavor doesn’t quite hold up though. ben4321 (948), Rockville, Maryland, USA Sep 15, 2009 Location: Draft at the Fells Point Brew Pub, 9/6/09
Aroma: Floral notes, nice amount of spice, and some herbal notes
Appearance: Clear golden-orange color
Flavor: Floral hops mixed with the spicy and yeasty malts, makes for a balanced brew
Palate: Medium body, semi-short duration
Overall Impression:
This beer is alright, I like what they were trying to do here. Decent effort, and made for a decent to above average brew. Not great, but worth trying.
lamas (709), Adams Morgan, Washington DC, USA Sep 4, 2009 Draft at Bowie location. Arrived at the table a fairly clear copper color with virtually no head. Some eucalyptus and candied sugar in the floral, spicy aroma. Fairly thin-bodied. Tastes as I expected based on the aroma - starts with some light candied sugar, a bit of honey, and a yeasty tanginess. Finishes quite spicy, crisp, and just a tad sour. Fair.
