Amber color. Simple Amber Ale, with some residual sweetness and a vegetable touch. Quite high ending bitterness, and an alcohol touch.

A dark amber orange ale with a thick off white head. A doughy aroma of grainy malt, cream, light acidic points, and warming alcohol. A sourish ale with mineral notes, lemon...seemed like an infected strong ale, or a rather light bodied gueuze. Overall, dissapointing. Bottle at Volo, March 21 2009, 9.95$ down the drain.

The best of the three that have been improrted. Taste a bit like a saaz hop with bold malting. Some ideas that are interesting but altogether so-so.

Bottle (330ml). Shared with blankboy, tupalev, Dave B, and R++ - courtesty of R. Poured cloudy bubbly orange with a small off-white fizzy head. Slightly soapy and grainy malt and grain aroma, with souri fruity yeast; somewhat vegetal. Flavour was much nicer, citrusy malt and mild UK slightly pungent hops - quite bitter on the finish and aftertaste, with a flat, sticky mouthfeel - the taste was fine, didn’t like the smell at all.

Bottle. (Volo) Pours thick hazy amber with respectable fine white top (4- ). Soft, clean warming alcohol aroma. Smooth ale, slightly sour at edges, substantial fruity sweetness. Gentle soft bitterness just made this beer even better.

Bottle shared with HogTownHarry, tupalev, R. & more -- courtesy of R. Pours a cloudy orange-amber with a small diminishing off-white head. Aroma of funky hops and sour fruit. Sweet flavour follows the aroma and has a boozy and quite bitter aftertaste. Decent but not for me.

Bottle form a tutta birra. Cloudy amber, sweet with some yeastiness. I should probably have let the sediment rest a bit in this one. Fruity, some Belgian style sourness. Quite decent as it warms up.

Sour pit fruit aroma, and some malt, hazy, red/orange, pours a small custard head. Taste of apricot and red plum, is softer than the aroma, with some spicey malt @ la Belgian, some citrus. Medium bodied, pleasantly sweet and sour, tongue tingle, This offering reminds me of a much lighter version of a Belgian red. Very nice.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
