| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 22, 2009 22 oz bottle. Pale golden straw colour with a thick sticky white head. The nose is really lovely. Bright spicy/minty nose with a very lean, crisp crackery maltiness. Spice and light lemony/herbal straw grassiness. Fairly zesty nose. The palate is soft and creamy with a touch of light vanilla. The grassy/hay-like character is quite pronounced and it gives a beer a lovely dry finish. Delicious and quite underrated really. thedm (3836), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 20, 2009 This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly diminishing and left behind a transparent typically carbonated yellow colored body and a fair lacing. The funky aroma was coriander and malt hop. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of malt hops fruity orange peel and coriander. A decent one that I would consider buying again. BeerVirgin72 (814), Pataskala, Ohio, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 18, 2009 Bottle at Yourdarklord’s tasting. Pours golden with a slight haze and white head. Lemon and pineapple estery aroma. Lighter side of medium bodied without being watery, soft to medium carbonation. Flavor is like the aroma, and not overly tart or sour. Smooth finish. One of the better New Holland beers I have tried. 17thfloor (1498), Chicago, Illinois, USA

Pours a cloudy yellow golden with a small/medium somewhat creamy fizzy white soda head. Aroma is stinky urinal cake, sweeter, floral, herbal, chalky, loads of vanilla, wheat, yeasty, lemon, soft but sweet. Flavor follows, abrasively sweet, yeasty and hot, the alcohol is offensive, lots of yeast and super weird sweetness, the alcohol is brutal, meaty yeasty, weirdly citric. Medium bodied, a bit syrupy sweet, too sweet, somewhat corse tightly packed carbonation. Abby tripplish.. Eh... needs to dry out. TampaBrew (848), Tampa, Florida, USA
