Hudspart (283), Hudsonville, Michigan, USA May 12, 2008 Bottle: I rather enjoyed this beer. Pours golden with a small head. Aroma of flowers, fruits and ginger. Weird, but good.
wyzzywyz22 (238), Wirral, Merseyside, England Jul 16, 2008 Bottle, Barleycorns, Nantwich. Poured a hazy golden colour with a small white head. Fruity fragrant aroma. Smooth mouthfeel. Flavour was on the sweet side with vague herb, spice and malt notes. Didn’t think I was going to like this, but its not bad at all. MBison (346), Southern Highlands, Australia Jul 14, 2008 Updated: Jul 15, 2008Bottle (500ml). Poured a golden hay with a slight haze and a averaged sized, fluffy, white head which was average lasting. A spicy aroma with strong notes of nutmeg and allspice, spicy hops, coriander, some banana clove like notes and hints of caramel malts. Flavor was very smooth with not much bitterness; strong notes of phenol and nutmeg with some allspice, suggestions of vegetables, some caramel malts hiding beneath the spice (presumably the heather) and some clove-like, vanilla, banana notes in the finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation, a cream mouthfeel, smooth texture and a good finish. benbakelaar (5), North Brunswick, New Jersey, USA does not count Jul 11, 2008 Not much aroma, but my sense of smell is not that good. Light, yellow gold color, clear. Surprisingly creamy, mild taste, not what you would expect based on the color. A bit flowery, definitely has a fizzy bite to it. The description of a dry wine finish is dead on. Verboten (2), Gainesville, Florida, USA does not count Jul 10, 2008 Low carbonation. crisp spiciness with overtones of citrus. Flavors perplexed me at first, this one takes a while to wrap your tongue around. overall very drinkable, really refreshing aftertaste. great for a hot summer evening. MiP (4744), Flensburg, Germany Jul 6, 2008 Bottle, 5% at ÅBF08. Golden colour. Weak pine flavour. Special enough to be slightly interesting.
