fatty (363), Perkiomenville, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 21, 2006 Medium honey orange body with lacing white head. Aroma is earthy, yeast and citrus. Flavor is ruity, yeast, banana. Palate is thin, watery, but good.
obguthr (707), Poquoson, Virginia, USA Apr 23, 2008 Apple, cinnamon, touch of clove on the nose. Sparkling amber color, thin head. Tastes of phenolic apple with a bitterness that seems out of place. Bitter grain and grass lingers. Rather off balance. beerbuzzmontreal (2697), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Feb 19, 2008 Aroma of perfume and bubble-gum. Cloudy orangy golden pour with a thin white head. Average flavor of perfume and bubble-gum. The body is medium with a creamy texture and gentle carbonation. Boring and bordeline problematic. Glouglouburp (1915), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Feb 19, 2008 In short: A sweet problematic Belgian blonde ale of some kind
How: Tasting session with Montreal crew
The look: Partly cloudy golden body with a little off-white ring of foam
In long: Perfume and bubblegum on the nose. Body has an airy fluffiness mouthfeel. Rather sweet, citrus juice, leathery notes, undesired acidic notes like past due-date apple juice. Many problems with this bottle but fortunately the beer is very tasty. I’ve tried a few bottles from the brewery lately and “disappointing Legend beer” is starting to sound as redundant as “right-wing conservative Republican”.
Rastacouere (5258), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Feb 17, 2008 Objectively speaking:
Another messy Legend bottle.
I like:
Bretty smell. Flowers.
I dislike:
Infections. Small head. Bubblegum. Extreme sweetness, yet very, very thin. Candied. Perfume. Biting effervescence.
carl4beer (249), Fairfax Station, Virginia, USA Feb 17, 2008 22oz. pours hazy and golden with small white head. aroma is mild spicy coriander with a hint of sweetness. mouthful is dominated by a bitter spiciness... everything else seems so secondary to the big spice. needs better balance.
