Probiere (992), Iowa, USA May 2, 2007 Much better than expected after two years on the shelf. A somewhat citrusy sweetness with a lightly herbal ending and a medium but not too sticky mouthfeel. Plenty of light nut and caramel malt notes. Very pleasant. Thanks to Dee for this, whose grandfather used to be head brewer and who brought me a bottle two Christmases ago. The brewery itself is interesting; they still use open fermentation and are a strongly local brand. jbrus (4350), Delft, Netherlands Nov 23, 2005 Bottled. Not very strong aroma. Light caramet, light cherry. Orange/brown color, beige head, good lace. Rather sweet but not annoying, light bitterness that increases in the finish, dark malt flavor, herbal hops, hint of caramel, light warming, little sticky, nice mouthfeel.
