Beershine (1440), Miami Beach, Florida, USA May 14, 2008 Bottle, thanks hopscotch! Hazy brown with thick rocky head and loads of lacing. Lots of silver metallic notes with salt too. Bone dry like a JP should be. Orval-like finish, so gorgeous.
zebracakes (1006), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 12, 2008 Bomber. Batch 288/289. Pours cloudy orange ruby, huge off white head. Aroma is funky, musty, tart, and woodsy. Flavor is tangy, tart, woody, some peat (hops), and bitterness that lingers on the tongue. SuzyGreenberg (1043), Seattle, Washington, USA Oct 11, 2008 750 ml bottle - thanks to colin for this; light gold with thin white head; aromas of apples, raw yeast and orange peels; woody and slightly sour (of course); green apples dominate; dry and bitter with some barnyard funk Marsiblursi (1432), Gö te la borrrrg, Sweden Oct 10, 2008 Updated: Oct 11, 2008(Bottle) Pours glowing orange amber to grayish brown with a creamy off-white head. The aroma holds soft and well-balanced notes of funky horse blanket/barnyard-ish Brett, toasted bread/dry, cracker-like malt and grassy/herbal/woody/hay-ish hops. A great deal of tart, sourish, green apple cider and lemon/lime/orange peel citrus is also notable. Very dry on the nose. The flavour is toasted malty, barnyard-ish yeasty, citric/apple-ish fruity and grassy, woody and herbal hoppy. Light, light sweet. The dryness and the noble hoppiness is fantastic but the mouthfeel is too watery to be ass kicking. Medium carbonated. Light to medium bodied. Rciesla (897), Brick City, New Jersey, USA Oct 6, 2008 Bottle. Pours a hazy orange yellow body. Lots of JP funk, acidic fruit, orange, lemon with a matly backbone. Light etoh. Some like wood and hops. Decent. larsniclas (3034), Gothenburg, Sweden Oct 5, 2008 Bottled at 3 små rum.
