Jul 6, 2009 12oz bottle from Total Beverage in Westminster, CO. Pours a clear straw gold, with a finger of white head continuously fed by champagne-like bubbles.
Aroma of yeast, spice (coriander?), and pine tar. Tastes like biscuit dough (lots of that yeast strain) with a twist of spice at the end. Drying finish, mildly strong carbonation.

Jul 6, 2009 12 ounce bottle in Grimbergen goblet (first time using this glass). Golden with quickly dissipating dense white head (could be the glass) and nice lace. Lemon pastry with yeasty spicy grassy aroma. Sweet lemony bready with medium fresh hop bitter dry finish. Nice soft mouthfeel and nice, lively carbonation. What can I say? I’m still a sucker for Belgian IPA. Delicious.

Jul 5, 2009 Bottle. Pours hazy corn gold, white head. Aroma is spicy, musty and funky. Flavor is spicy, white grapes, and hoppy. I rather like the tangy (not sweet at all) somewhat sour bite of the white grapes. I’m supposing that must be due to the type of hops? This is a unique beer and is pretty darn bitter and smooth.

Scent of leather, centennial hops, fruit, and decay, visuals are a brilliant golden body with a long lasting white head, taste is begian sweetness, bananas, and biscuits, with IPA citrus, bitterness, and presence. Palate is drying, active carbonation, and creamy. Overall, a very good beer. I hope it’s regularly available, because I’d like to have it all the time.

Jul 4, 2009 Bottle. Hazy yellow-orange with a fizzle of a top. The aroma is laced with herbs and yeast. This aptly named brew drinks with a mildewy aspect of wild fermentation and a citrus twist.

Jul 3, 2009 The aroma is like fruity corn bread with some spice and grass. The appearance is pale gold with an average head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin. Overall I am not a fan at all.
