dalekliz (314), San Diego, California, USA Jun 10, 2008 Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange-brown with a thin, off-white head. Aroma is slightly sour, of tart fruits and spices, with notes of chocolate. Taste is nicely sour, with just a hint of bitter chocolate. Light lingering sourness. Very tasty, but I was hoping for more chocolate.
Jmichael (606), Asheville, North Carolina, USA Jan 8, 2009 poured a dark amber wiht white head, bubbly pallate, good as always for Jolly Pumpkin, that token funkiness that makes them fun. santoslhalper (312), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 1, 2009 This beer is kind of a mix between an oud bruin and a Belgian dark. Nice vinous, chocolate and plum notes combine with funk, vinegar and acid. Really well balanced with a smooth palate and a long, dry, funky, fruity, spicy aftertaste. Amazingly complex yet beautifully balanced. Fucking masterpiece. sundevil27 (26), , New Jersey, USA Dec 30, 2008 I’ve recently gotten onto the Jolly Pumpkin bandwagon. Everytime I try another one of their beer, I only come out liking that funky taste that much better. Very different taste, yet very well balanced. Bring on the next one.... LinusStick (1644), Moon Township, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 29, 2008 Ugh this is awful. I must have a bad bottle. Aroma was vomit, brown cinnamon and alcohol. Pour was a nice dark gold with a one finger near tan head. Taste was awful. Puke with dark fruits and a vinous backbone with a spicy and acloholic aftertaste. Without the puke taste I can taste that the beer might not be that bad. Each sip I take I think maybe it is me, but it keeps coming back. Blah. ericandersnavy (261), denton, Texas, USA Dec 16, 2008 bottle thanks to bhops. poured a hazy amber with a beige head. aroma of sour tart, orange zest, caramel, and green apples. flavor went right along with the nose with a touch of cinnamon added.
