Jan 11, 2005 Bottle. 2004 Vintage. Unfiltered pale goldn beer with a thin white film. Malty aroma (? for a triple wheat ?) with some citrus and spice and alcohol. Thick, ruch doughy mouthfeel, but somehow very refreshing. You can taste the alcohol presence, but it’s refreshing enough (or I’m thirsty enough) to keep drinking. Honey, malt, wheat with some surprising hops.

Nov 27, 2004 2001: Smells and tastes like a barley wine. Medium to large bubbles. Carmel, apple, and apricot notes. Finish is more bitter than most barley wines. Kind of like a wheat/barleywine/IPA.

Aug 27, 2004 Head is initially small, frothy, off-white, mostly lasting. Body is light amber. Aroma is moderately malty (cookie), moderately hoppy (resin, pine), with notes of peach and alcohol. Flavor is heavily sweet, moderately acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is moderately sweet, moderately acidic, moderately bitter. Medium to full body, velvety texture, lively carbonation. Typical west coast aroma, but fairly well balanced.

Jul 5, 2004 Not what I was expecting from a wheat beer, but the Baley Wine description explains it better. Very malty and flavourful with some citrus hopping.
