Nodding Head Georges Fault

Tap @ the pub. Poured a hazy gold color with a thin off-white head. The aroma had some citrus notes mixed into a sweet bready malt. Mild spice and some orange skin. The flavor was fairly estery with some spices that included white pepper. Good warmth on the finish. Medium bodied.

Draft, at Nodding Head. My fiance is always excited to see this on the draft list at Nodding Head. Pours orange amber, capped with an average-sized white head. Aroma of orange zest, honey, coriander and wheat. Flavor is somewhat sweat, with honey, apricot, citrus, wheat, and spice. Medium bodied, with a slightly syrupy mouthfeel. A nice sipper.

pale yellowish-brown body with small white head. Honey and bubblegum scent. Has flavors of bubblegum and a bit of lemon.

UPenn tasting..pale golden color. very sweet aroma- honey, citrus. Too sweet I guess from the honey and unfortunatley that is the dominant flavor. surprising @ 9%

Sample @ UPenn tutored Tasting ’07. Poured a nice pale golden color. Aroma was a bit unusual - Citrus, honey, slight malt - none being very prominent. Flavor was much the same, with some spices (coriander?) coming through. A touch on the sweet side. A little on the dry side, somewhat thin mouthfeel. Alcohol is completely hidden.

Draught tulip at Nodding Head on 1/19/07
A small but even amount of snow white head sits atop a mostly clear bronze body that has goldleaf hues. Head eventually disappears, leaving no lacing.
Slight powdered/corn sugar in the nose combines with leafy, slightly vegetal notes. It grows slightly more clean as it progresses, adding light floral aromatics and some juicy citrus notes (oranges mainly). The residual sugars combine with the hops to produce candied orange and orange blossom honey notes. Warm honey drizzled biscuit-like notes provide the main interest. Moderate acidity (coriander?) on the finish, with light alcohol sharpness and some dough notes as well. Medium strength of aroma.
Simple sugars coat the tongue on first sip and again I’m left thinking that the malt is underdone and this beer has the adjunct/candi sugar to support it. Dry, somewhat hard texture, with light stickiness does not feel or taste like malt, nor does it leave a pleasant finish, leaving notes of corn and sharp alcohol and making for a rather weak texture (it gets watery and loose, despite the lower carbonation). Lots of acidity coming from somewhere, probably the honey fermenting. Little bit of floral hoppiness and light citrus notes. Too pungent/acidic, without the requisite tight carbonation for the style. Sweetness is rather basic and the corn notes certainly don’t help.

Draught from wine glass. This one is pretty interesting - light golden color with medium head. Very sweet orange-honey aroma. Taste is overwhelmingly sweet with lots of citrys and some honey, plus a rather nice flowery taste. Not typical by any means - nice change of pace.

"Poured a medium golden color with okay head in the tulip glass. Aroma was very weak nearly impossiable to pick up anything besides citrus. Flavor was citrusy some orange rind and grapefruit in there corandier some honey. Hid the alcohol well. Was good not amazing"
