Oakes (6979), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Sep 20, 2008 Opaque, yellowish appearance. The aroma is orangey, slightly footy. Quite fruity on the palate, with a fairly full body, light orange and a hint of spice. Finishes wheaty and a slight bit sticky.

HogTownHarry (3286), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada May 10, 2008 Cask. At Volo. Cloudy/murky yellow-gold pour with a solid lasting white head. Dry aroma, sweet and yeasty, but not much fruit character - mostly stale butterscotch. The taste, much better, more like a wit - mild sweet caramel malt, bitter spice mostly on-style, and yes, that "Durham" yeast taste. Soft, chewy body, with a quick finish - just decent, not all that memorable. jerc (3217), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 19, 2008 2008-05-10. Lightly golden pastel yellow body with a modest creamy white head and great lacing that coats the side. (4+) Very fruity yeasty aroma, light diacytel notes or something similar. (6+) Similar flavours, fruity yeast reminds me of something I can’t place. Fruity, curious to know what yeast was used, it does not seem like a standard wit-ester profile. Average palate. Mabel liked it a lot, I was underwhelmed. Agree with the general sentiment that it would be better serviced on draught. Will be interesting to see where future iterations go with this. Cask at Volo Sammy (3141), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 26, 2008 On tap at C’est What. Cloudy yellow with moderate white head. Lacey. Some yeast puffs up the mouthfeel. A bit sour yet quite drinkable.
