Jan 10, 2006 750ml bottle. Orange/amber color with fluffy white head, highly carbonated, and lots of sediment. Nose of citrus, grass, sweetish caramel malt, grassy hops, and some tangy, yeasty funk. Flavor pretty well follows, though as the beer warms, a grapefruit hop flavor emerges and becomes prominent-- an interesting surprise. Very nice carbonation and creamy, full mouthfeel. I had never bought this because of the non-descript label (what the hell is art beer?) and am now kicking myself. I really enjoyed this one, great stuff!

Jan 8, 2006 750 ml bottle shared by jerc. Cloudy golden colour with a fizzy and frothy off-white head. Caramel, yeasty (cobweb, dusty) fruity, and orange aroma. Caramel, orange, citrus peel, dusty, and alcohol flavours. Light bodied, effervescent mouthfeel - fizzy but refreshing. Good stuff.

Jan 8, 2006 Bottle. Hazy amber brown with a big creamy white head. Yeasty, sweet aroma with toasty malt and moderate caramel notes. Dry yet sweet flavour, with a light caraeml and dried fruit. Toasted malt, moderate bitterness combines with alcohol to offset sweetness. Alcohol dries out the mouth in the aftertaste leaving a lingering mouthwash like character that is distracting but not unpleasant. Medium palate is quite effervescent. Enjoyable but not mind blowing. Thanks for the trade Probiere.

Jan 5, 2006 750ml bottle. Deep golden color with a thin-medium head that disippated quickly. Keeps it carbonation nicely without letting it overpower the beer. Good balance between sweet and bitter, malt and hops. Almost seems too light to be a 7.7 ABV. The bitterness sticks with ya, but it’s a good bitterness. I like farmhouse style ales and I enjoy this a lot. May have to bring one home instead of just drinking it on the job ;)

Dec 28, 2005 Pours gold with a thin white head. Smells fruity with some dough and barnyard qualities. Taste is fruity with some sugar notes present. Mouthfeel is a bit thin. Alcohol is well masked making it dangerously drinkable.
