sigma23 (217), , Maine, USA Oct 29, 2009 pours clear gold with a medium white head. aroma is spice and citrus with a bunch of key lime coming through. drinks spicy and tart at the same time which kind of threw me off. citrus and hay finish it. drinkable on a hot day once you get used to the tart and spice together. JCB (1713), Durham, North Carolina, USA Oct 14, 2009 12oz bottle from a trade on BA - thanks, Stephen! Brighter pour than I’d imagined, with a crisp carbonation and a sharp yeasty nose. Citrus and mild spices in the nose too. Body is medium, decently carbonated, although the finish is a bit abrupt. Flavor is failry average, though certainly less offensive than I often find this style. Citrus is there, spice fades into the background fairly quickly, and it gets a bit too grassy. But it’s certainly passable overall. Ughsmash (3978), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Oct 13, 2009 Bottled. Poured clear, bright golden with a creamy cap of off-white head.. looked quite nice. The aroma picked up an abundance of salt and limey notes with lesser bready yeast.. soft pale malts beneath. The flavor had a richer feel from the malts, with bread joined by a hint of vanilla at the core.. mostly sweet (but still a touch sour) lime and salt surrounded and rode out the finish.. simple and quite refreshing. Light-medium bodied with creamy carbonation and feel on the palate.. just a little too sweet and salty, but otherwise an entirely serviceable brew. bleeng (587), Spring near Beersel, Texas, USA Sep 16, 2009 Bottle thanks to daknole. Pours bright hazy yellow with a creamy white head. Nose is lemony, citrusy, wheaty, and spicy. Taste is very spicy upfront, with a huge citrusy flavor. Light body but a lame finish. Overall not too bad and drinkable on a hot humid day. swoopjones (1862), Buffalo, New York, USA Sep 8, 2009 Bottle. Pours a light yellow with plent o bubbles. Aromas & tastes of corinader, lemon, lime wheat. Decent wit phishpond417 (1861), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Sep 8, 2009 Pours a bright golden colour with noticeable sediment and lots of haze. Taste is creamy and spicey, wheaty and yeasty esters. with some bananna and apple notes as well. Super refreshing and wicked clean from beginning to end. douglas88 (1556), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Sep 5, 2009 12 oz bottle thanks to Ibrew2or3. Pours a clear orange color with a medium white head. The aroma is full of sweet Belgian malts, honey and some lime. The flavor was sweet; lots of malt and lime flavors, some light and unappealing skunk and spicy limes. Decent, but not my kind of thing. thedm (3833), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Sep 5, 2009 This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a small sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a transparent softly carbonated yellow-orange colored body and a fair lacing. The complex aroma was malty and spicy. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The strange flavor contained notes of malt mild hops and mild spice. A horrible one that I would rather not drink again. Way off-the-mark and just plain weird for a beer.
