| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 14, 2009 Bottle - Pours hazy amber with a big, frothy head. Smells really bretty with a lot of citrus. Taste is dry and bitter, with some oak, grapefruit, and lemon. Has a dry, grassy hop finish -- a little too much for my tastes. Real bubblly and medium bodied. There’s just too much dryness to this one -- the citrus helps a bit, but it’s too one-sided. dmschefke (371), Eastpointe, Michigan, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 11, 2009 Pours a very slight amber orange with thick white head, lots of lacing. Aroma is interesting and enjoyable of citrus and herbal hops, tart fruit, yeast, and an expected earthy character. Flavor comes together better than I was expecting and the bitterness definitely complements the sourness. Very enjoyable and refreshing. tgncc (818), Bellmore, New York, USA
