Commercial Description:
This one came to us in a dream and doesn't fit style guidelines at all. Essentially, it's a Pale Ale hopped with noble hops and fermented with a special Belgian strain of yeast. Rose hips and oak finish off this truly unique offering. Enjoy!

Thanks to whomever poured me a glass. It poured a deep gold body, somewhat hazy, with a smallish fizzy head. The aroma was honey sweet with light bready malts and a hint of tangerines. Light bodied. The flavor pretty well echoed the aroma except for a slight tart apple taste that jumped in midway. Not too bad.

Found this one bottled at the brewery in Plover, Wisconsin. Hazy, reddish brown pour with a medium, slowly dissipating whitish head. Light, sweet citrusy nose, strawberry, baked bread, and crystal malts with an alcoholic binder. Woody, grassy flavor with notes of apple cider, lime, cranberry, brandy, balanced with some grapefruit rind and rosy hoppiness. Strong finish. Interesting and very good.

[Bottle, thanks Skyview] Pours hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma is really strong, sweet apple--not too good. Taste is apple, malt and light oak in the finish. Medium-thin mouthfeel. I didn’t really care for this beer much.

Thank you Skyview! Dark and cloudy copper color. Appley aroma. Grassy, herbal, sweet apple taste.

Pours hazy blonde with white head. Light caramel and malt aroma with some yeast and apple presence. Flavor is somewhat oaky with touch of brandy hop and citrus.
