Feb 24, 2007 12oz bottle - Toronado
Pours: Straw yellow slightly hazy with a huge billowy white head which lasts for a long time
Palate: Relatively light bodies with the tartness and the medium high carbonation.. a great fit for a summer afternoon
Nose: Floral, base malts, some musty and lemony notes..
Flavor: opening notes of base (wheat like) malt notes with some spicy hop bite with some fruitiness before the the blast of lemony (some pith) cleansing tartness along with some woody notes washes over...
Overall: WOW! what a great beer.. for something under 5% is fantastic... almost like "Temptation or Saison Dupont LITE" so much going on.... a great summer beer... but hey a cloudy day in SF is not a bad choice either.. I would chalk this under another one of the masterful beers from Jolly Pumpkin.. Cheer Ron!

Feb 22, 2007 750 ml bottle. It pours a straw yellow with creamy white head with good lacing. The tartness of lemon in the nose that come though in the flavor with the added complexity of a slight woodsy and spicy character in the finish. Well made beer.

Feb 17, 2007 clear like water, almost not even yellow at all, very carbonated, big white head which eventually turns into nothing, citrus tea flavor, grapes, champagne like, delicate, slightly bitter on the finish, very well done

Feb 17, 2007 Updated: May 23, 200712oz bottle....poured a hazy golden hue with nice white head, and bubbly carbonation lasted several minutes….Aroma was of a wheat beer, citrus-like and reminded me of warmer months….taste was lemony-tart, refreshing, dry but without much of lasting sensation. It ended very abruptly in my eyes ….mouthfeel was okay, high level of carbonation but added to its refreshing nature. not too bad of a beer but i’ve had better before.

Feb 12, 2007 I felt lots of coriander and other spices in this, a bit leathery and earthy. Bitter apples like a sour cider in the mix. FInishes with a lemony zest and sour malts.

Feb 10, 2007 Medium golden color - fairly clear and bubbly and a big fluffy and fairly dense head. Aroma of apples, lemon, bready yeast and orange peel. Flavor is quite fruity - strong presence of orange and apple, with a nice wheat tartness. A little spiciness from the coriander towards the end. Fairly dry and clean finish.
