Moderately carbonated. Solid. arjoseph (594), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Jul 12, 2007 On tap into tulip, Clybourn brewpub. Hazy pale golden yellow with barely a dusting and ring of head left. Some funk on the smell, like a High Life that’s been left out in the sun, lurking beneath spices and soft malts like banana cream. Nicely light and lively, with the yeasty byproducts tickling the tongue from the beginning and the characteristic spiciness of a wit (some corriander, though mostly ginger, cardamom, and pepper). Immediately following the swallow, the beer blossoms with acidity that is very much like grapefruit with lemon all around it, biting sour but not intense with the lemon as a soft flavorful counterpoint. Settles into a dry finish that eventually just fades away and leaves a bit of sweetness on the top of the tongue. Very refreshing summer beer. Ughsmash (4099), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 26, 2007 On tap at GI - Clybourn. Poured a hazy yellowy-golden with a short, well-retained white head.. some lacing followed it down. Aroma was of peppery spices and banana at the yeasty fore.. some light fruits not far behind.. really enjoyed the nose on this. Flavor was a great blend of peppery yeast with lighter-skinned fruits and a mild floral bitterness.. left a long, tasty impression at the finish. Lighter-bodied but chock fulla flavor.. nice flow to it.. refreshing finish. Great stuff!
