Tallahassee, Fl. - Publix Supermarkets, 12 oz bottle. Medium copper pour,
too thin white head that dissipates quickly. Slightly gassy aroma, with a
hint of rotten eggs, some mint, brief spruce. Flavor has a hint of bitter
grapefruity citrus notes, some grassy notes, and a bit of the same rotten
egg funkiness that is found in the aroma. Mouthfeel is a tad harsh, leaning
to the thin side. The higher ABV did not seem to improve this one much.

Aug 29, 2008 Coppery amber fairly white head. Aroma of lemon, elderflower, herbal, sweet paprika, coriander, alcohol. Biscuity piney flavours with coriander and a puckering slightly astingent bitterness at the back of the palate. Im surprised by both the IBU count and the ABV which I think it a complement. Good lacing. This brewery holds a special place for me but I wouldnt rave about this beer. Matches well with indian food.
