On draught at Nodding Head in Philly 2/3/2006: Beautiful pale golden colored body, mostly clear, with a medium, lasting, rocky white head. The aroma is sweet malt, orange rind, light citrus, spices, and yeast. Upon tasting, I think how well this one hides the alcohol. There’s notes of coriander, orange rind, mild yeast, crisp sweet malts, and a bit of honey. The spices taste artificial to me, almost as if just a bit too much was added. Light-medium bodied, very crisp and clean in the mouth, medium carbonation (I wouldn’t mind it more lively but to be fair this is on tap and I’m compairing it to bottle-conditioned beers). Well worth a try.

Complex and defies characterization. At $3/taster, it had better be good, and this was (mostly). Very sweet with lots of honey, this brew has honey added, which is noticeable. Very unusual. Tastes more like 6% abv instead of 9%.

Aroma is sweet and citrusy. Pours a beautiful honey gold with a lasting, slightly frothy white head. Flavor is fantastic! Blast of honey immediately, followed by clean, crisp notes of citrus/orange, coriander, and spices. Palate is wonderfully complex - unfolding into a bouquet of orange and sweet spicy fruit. Finishes fizzy with an oily feeling around the mouth.
