Good aroma - orange peel. Taste is smooth (but my tongue has become weathered from the previous beers in this session) I distinctively remember this being better than any other river horse I’ve tried thus far. beergeek86 (33), Clarksville, Maryland, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 22, 2008 12 oz bottle purchased at Spirits RB. Pours a hazy cloudy orange/amber, pretty much the body of apple cider, with an average size bright white foamy head. Aroma of spices(corriander, white pepper, cloves), wet wheat, alcohol, overripe bananas and tropical fruit. Medium bodied with average to strong carbonation and a teeny tiny touch of alcohol warming on the back of my throat. Flavor of wheat, tropical fruit, citrus, light spices, and yeast. Rather nice and drinkable but why does this one cost so much compared to the other River Horse offerings?? Oh yeah that’s right it’s the Fn economy and everything is a rip off today.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 20, 2008 Bottle, thanks to HopDog, shared with Bu11zeye & Blutt59.
Poured a cloudy yellow, semi-orange with fizzy white head. Aroma of bannana, citris, and laffy taffy candy. The flavor is much the same, very enjoyable. Palate has a soft, light body, high carbonation, very crisp. Over all, I really enjoyed this beer...it is a very refreshing summer beer and would like to try another.....Thanks Unclemattie!

| 1.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 1/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 3/20 | May 10, 2008 Tastes like thin apple cider that’s just about to go bad, with almost no body at all, except for remnant apple pulp. Lots of fresh cut grass flavor. Pours a turbulent brown, like dirty water, and reminds me of dirty water - like if you let it sit long enough, everything would settle out and you’d be left with plain ole’ water. When you first gulp it it does have a roundness to it, but after you swallow you’re left with a dry sparkling -cider-mixed-with-laundry-water tang aftertaste. Has lots of yeast floating in it.
Worse than Nova Shin. Blech!
