dry malt flavor, lots of wood character, light tartness blended with a musty earthyness, just a hint of sweetness comes from behind to add complexity and balance,

Oct 8, 2007 Draft at Pacific Beach Tap Room. Arrived a cloudy light golden with little to no head. Aroma of tart fruits and yeast, hints of spice. Flavor is also tart fruits, floral notes and more belgian yeastiness, lingering tart/bitter aftertaste. Light body and crispy carbonation. More like a summer cooler, than an autumn special.

Oct 1, 2007 Draft @ Stone Bistro. Pours a hazy, yellowish white color; very minimal off-white head. Relaxed bananas and cloves in the aroma; slightly watery. Medium mouthfeel: slightly overcarbonated and sharp on the tongue; bananas, citrus, and some mild spice coming through (clove, white pepper); somewhat uninspired and mild, but reasonable drinkable. Medium, banana and clove finish; slightly dry.

Sep 18, 2007 On tap 9/17/07 at PP Carlsbad. Poured an opaque yellow with short lived white foam, very little lacing. Aroma is yeast yeast and just a little bit of sour maltiness, reminds me a lot of a botched homebrew. Very viscous mouthfeel, feels half finished, flavor again reminds me of homebrew, way too much yeastiness. Should have crashed cooled or lagered this for a few guys. Looks like it may be good, just way too green.
