Commercial Description:
The conception and naming of this beer happened in one fell swoop. Unsure whether to offer a light session beer or a fun ball-buster as our warm weather seasonal, we decided on a beer that would be “a big, fatty boombalatty” version of a Belgian white. And away we went, taking a recipe for a white beer and ramping up the grain bill by 50%; we dropped the amount of wheat by 75% to keep the beer rough around the edges. We bucked tradition by steering the bitterness in the direction of a pale ale, and coupling hops with coriander in the fermenter. The resulting beer gives you all the bubblegum goodness of a big Belgian, with enough crispness to cut through the sweet profile, thus making you want to sip it again and again. Dangerous, indeed!

Pours cloudy orange/amber with a white head. Holy bubblegum batman. It dominates the aroma. Just like bubblegum ice cream. Taste is banana, orange, a bit of sweet malt. Very unique.

Liquid Juicy Fruit! Pours a hazy appetizing orange. Bubble gum aroma with citrusy hops and a touch of coriander. This one tastes very much like it smells, like a big fat pack of Juicy Fruit. The beer is crisp and carbonated which suits the flavors well.

On tap at State Fair. Very cloudy orange amber with a thin, tight white head. Sugary, spicy aroma. Flavor is a complex load of fruit zest, sugary malt, sweet fruit and a crisp hit of hops at the finish. This is good!

Orange pour with a quickly dissipating head and plenty of suspended yeast. Yeast, hop, and spice aroma. There is a little bit of everything in the flavor. Yeast, hop, fruit, spice, malt, and alcohol. The hop[ adds a lot of zestiness that electrifies the tongue at times. Bubblegum showed up after the glass warmed, a result of the yeast. So multi-faceted! New flavors in every other sip. Delicious, too!

(bottle) Pours a hazy orange with a small white head. The first thing I smelled was a strong scent of orange peel coupled with some coriander. A sweeter smell of apricot also appears. With further warming the beer begins to smell like a less potent version of de Dolle Arabier, and the hops begin to assert themselves more. Flavor is a little sweeter to begin with, but difficult to describe. There’s a sweet taste of orange, and another fruit that I can’t identify. The finish begins very spicy with coriander that then changes to more bready yeast and light bitter hops with a medium mouthfeel. I didn’t have too high of expectations before trying this beer, but it is really quite drinkable.
