Mar 11, 2005 2005 Boulder Strong Ale Fest.
Body is hazy light amber.
Aroma is moderately malty (toasted grain, cookie), with notes of ginger, banana, clove, coriander.
Flavor is moderately sweet, moderately acidic, lightly bitter.
Finish is lightly sweet, moderately acidic, moderately bitter.
Medium to full body, velvety texture, lively carbonation, moderately alcoholic.
Lots of aromatic spices is nice, but the balance is a little off (slightly edgy/harsh), and the alcohol is surprisingly noticeable.

Mar 6, 2005 "Firestone Double White" - Cloudy orange with a frothy head. Notes of coriander, ginger and clove. Creamy, doughy malts. Kind of tea-like in a way. Nice yeast flavors. "Holiday Spiced Belgian Dubbel" - Deep orange with a slight haze; served with an orange wedge. Spicy aromas (coriander, pepper, clove, ginger) contrasted against a sweet malt base (sugar water, candy, honey, and sweet fruit). Had these months apart, but I’m wondering if they’re essentially the same beer, or maybe just slightly altered versions of the same thing.

Apr 27, 2008 Warm golden color with slight haze. Heavily perfumed nose and soapy, flowery flavors to match. Entertaining at first then quickly becomes a bath bomb.

Jul 9, 2006 This is a wonderful summer beer. Lots of fruity phenolic aromas. Big hint of bananas right upfront. Flavor is slightly sugary sweet, lots of toasted malty creaminess. Clove and bubblegum spiciness, with some corriander citrus acidity to round out the palate. Very enjoyable

Aug 21, 2006 Draft: Cloudy peach. Thick, big-bubbled white foam. Sharp nose of cardamom, ginger, and yeast. Carbonation is hard and spritzy. Slippery body. Rounded notes of acidity are negated by a sweet and fruity orange-peel onslaught. Orange peels dominate the flavor by generating a dense marmalade sweetness. Prominent notes of alcohol and candy sugar do little more than muddle the underlying brightness. Finishes oversweet and redundant with yeast and a lingering blend of coriander and clove. Not a whole lot of imagination went into this, as it’s overly spicy and sweet.
