Draught at Papago Brewing Company. Slightly hazy golden-yellow color with bubbly white head. Aroma is weak lemon zest, pears, and vanilla. Tastes a lot like cream soda with some vanilla and fruit in the backgound. Spritzy with a splash of alcohol at the end.

Congnac color with a small off white head. Aroma is fruity and syrupy. Flavor starts very sweet peach/apricot and finishes with a light, dry orange rind bitterness. Medium body, light carbonation

Draft at PP Strong Ale Fest ’05. Gold clear pour with some head. Sweet medium fruity malty aroma and flavors - apples or pears. A little wheaty, and maybe some other estery berry notes.

Draft. Orange amber with a large offwhite head. Apples, sweet malt, and wheaty aromatics. Wheat, apple, peach flavors. Alcoholic, dusty weizen yeast ester finish. Mouthfeel is heavy and hot.

Couleur dorée surmonté d’une faible mousse savonneuse. Arômes de solvant et d’alcool sous une touche fuitées rappelant les pêches. Puissantes saveurs d’alcool et de malt caramel occupent la plupart de l’espace en bouche. Finale exposant toujours pleinement l’alcool ainsi qu’un bref aperçu de houblon. Corps plutôt atténué, texture vineuse. GABF 2005.

CASK at brewery. Amazing drop. Rich, dense fruity raisin and sweet prunes aroma with alcohol notes too. Looks great in it’s tulip with a creamy tan head over a sherry-like dark ruby red. Body is syrupy yet light and creamy smooth - like a liqueur. The taste is sweet, with no sharp alc burn but a pleasant heat from realms below - devil’s temptation indeed. Rich fruit (drunken prunes) and seductive over the tongue. There’s a late choc hint as well. Jenee, my fience - and not a big beer drinker, would happily slurp this all evening. Masterful.

Off-white ring tops the clear orange-golden hue. A complex fruitiness (pear, grape, banana, melon) reminds of the great wheat beers, but you cant be mistaken with this well disposed grassy hoppiness. The overlying malts are caramelic, bready with pleasant brownsugar undertones. Restricted bitterness accentuates the vinous feel, so does the light carboantion and light-medium body. Well done, just not very exciting.
