Aroma of bread dough and spiciness. Had a nice malty, spicey taste with a hint of lemon peals, citrus/orange flavor. Easy drinking beer, not really my style, could be a good summer beer.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 14, 2009 Lips of faith bottle from Brusin’ Ales. Hazy bright amber pour, fluffy off white head, and drippy lace. Toast, biscuit malts, and light spice on the nose. Lemon, ginger and light horse blanket with notable hints of brettanomyces underlined all over the zesty flavor. Slightly dry finish. Decent, but at the $15 dollar price tag I don’t think i’ll be picking up another. tmoreau (597), Lombard, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 10, 2009 4oz. sample at Brixie’s in Brookfield, IL. A fairly clear golden hue, with a white bubbly head that settled down to a light layer and small ring of lacing. The nose was a hint of yeast and bread, spice, and some banana peanuts. The flavor was light malt, woody, grassy and somewhat dry. Okay and sessionable. Sparky27 (1608), Phoenix, Arizona, USA

Pours a coudy amber with a beige head. The nose is light sour citrus, malt and spice. The taste is light funk, sour citrus and spicy yeast. Medium prickly mouthfeel. Decent stuff.

22 oz bottle courtesy of Binnys South Loop and shared with a couple friends. Pours a well carbonated sunshine amber, decent white head that laces pretty well, fairly lively carbonated body. Aromas throw a combo of belgian yeast, a touch of spice, vanilla and honey. Initial is a bit floral, a bit funky but that doesn’t play a huge role. Vanilla, honey, belgian yeasty spice.. Flowers. Light, a touch of cinnamon, clove. Finishes dry, lightly bitter. Underlying sweetness and spice sticks to the palate. A decent effort, just a strange mishmash of styles for me.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Apr 11, 2004 Fruity, apricot nose; light orange color; spongy head. Apricot malt base with yeast component in the foreground with a little citrus. Tinge of hops at the end with some corriander and pepper. Turned grassy as the glass warmed. Creamy body and mouthfeel. Sweet for my tastes, but good.
