shp555 (1376), lilburn, Georgia, USA Jun 1, 2008 Pours a hazy straw yellow color with a white head. Aroma is malty, grainy, some vanilla, floral, and juniper berries. Flavor is grainy, malty, toast, and a spicy juniper finish.
heemer77 (3647), Savannah, Missouri, USA Jun 8, 2008 Tap at the brewery. My favorite from these guys. The body was deep gold to amber. The aroma was berries with some grapefruit. The taste was bitter grapefruit with a little bit of blueberry. A sweet finish. aracauna (2238), Georgia, USA Jun 3, 2008 Pours with a heavy haze. Bubblegum esters are evident in the aroma. Very much like a hefeweizen, but several of the brewery’s beers were showing some noticeable yeasty esters. Suttree (2283), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Jun 2, 2008 Smells a bit like Gin, was one might expect. also has just a touch of juniper flavor at first, before morphing into a more traditional Pale Ale finish. Rather uniqu and enjoyable, would make a good session ale. Sampled at 2008 open house. ChainGangGuy (1524), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Jun 2, 2008 Appearance: Pours an exceptionally cloudly, turbid, gold body with a small, fizzy, white head.
Smell: Pale malts and a vague wheat cracker character. Mild juniper note in the slightly yeasty scent.
Taste: Pale malts with a slight sugary sweetness. Again, I can’t shake that tangy wheaty taste. Fruity, with delicate tastes of peach and apple juices. Hint of juniper. Light citrus hops with a restrained bitterness. Crispy, floral finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: It’s alright.
