Golden pour with white head. Nose of spicy flowers and grain malts. Crisp, clean mouthfeel with flavors of melon, flowers and malts and finishes with a nice spicy note.

Dec 14, 2009 My understanding is that New Belgium and Red Rock (UT) both brewed versions of this, and Red Rock’s is sitting in oak right now. Anyway, pours a cloudy orange color with a medium white head. The aroma is herbal, oranges, sweet and lots of yeast. A sweet marmalade flavor, rich delicate dandelions, herbs pepper and yeast. Slightly odd funk in the finish. Pretty decent.

Dec 14, 2009 Bomber from Beverages & More Arden. Pours a sparkling banana yellow with a large white head. Aroma is hoppy with some sour Brett notes. Simple but pleasant aroma. Mild hops return in the flavor with a modest farmhouse funk and slight florality. Pleasant flavor, but very mild. Could’ve been a little bolder, the flavor. Medium viscosity, average mouthfeel. Kind of like a weak saison here, basically. Not bad, just could’ve had a bit more flavor. Overall, good.

Dec 1, 2009 Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in Plano, TX. Pours a very nice looking murky light burnt orange with large fluffy/fizzy white head. Aroma is interesting, light herbal, a little farmhouse, faint mustiness, faint clove, light notes of banana, faint pineapple, a little grassy, pretty complex. Flavor is interesting as well, funk, grain, farmhouse, clove, leafy hop, very herbal, little grassy, signs of light citrus, light malt, notes of white pepper, I think I get some leather as well and weedy bitter at the end. Mouth feel is some what light body with fizzy carbonation.

Nov 19, 2009 Pale golden pour with a thick stick white head. The nose is quite lovely. Soft perfumey nose with a lovely soft malt base and a kiss of flowers, brett and a nicely flinty minerality. As it warms up the nose really brightens up, shows off flowers, lemon peel, brett and cologne. In the mouth it has lively carbonation and a soft creamy palate. A nice mix of lemon balm, flint and a bit of soft white spice. There is a balance of really good stuff going on in here but there is also an odd deadness on the back of the palate that makes the beer kind of fade away in a strange way. It still smells and looks great, but there does seem to be a little something missing.

Nov 10, 2009 Having a bottle of this from our good friend Paul B, gracias Pablo. Poured with a nice white head and a little lace. Color is a hazy yellow v the burnished gold. Aroma is not so good - rotted flowers. Flavor is reminiscent of same plus major dominance of bitter yeast. Body is ok, a bit thin at the end with good carbonation. Finish is no great shakes. Bitter yeastoids are too much.
