Golden ale with a thin white head. Sweet corny malt with light hops in aroma, and honey fresh malt with notes of cloves and honey. Light bodied. Mondial 2005, with Armistead label.

Clear amber color. Faint grassy hop and malt aromas. Flavor is sweet, with some spicy citrus and a little hop dryness in the finish. Smooth and easy to drink, but mediocre at best. General Lee was on my label.

A cloudy yellow appearance with a moderate to large head. The aroma is faint lemons and dishwashing soap. The flavor is Land-O-Lakes butter, lemons, and a hint of grass. The mouthfeel is oily and carbonated. Oh and my bottle has a picture of Sherman on it. I guess Sherman is going to burn Atlanta again so to speak. Pass.

This is a wheat? Seriously? almost completely lacking in any wheat character at all. But what does that matter when your drinking out of collectable bottle adorned with your favorite Civil War general? Pours orange with flaoties, with a sizey white head. Faint aroma, with maybe a hint of vanilla. Flavor is beery, with a faint citrus note. Now, I’ll trade you a Burnsides for a Stuart...

[At Stockholm Beer Festival 2005] An orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has powerful notes of honey with the malt hiding in the background. The flavor is sweet honey combined with malt - the honey also brings with it notes of bees wax, and rosehips, and makes it a bit sticky in the mouth.

Bottled. Deep golden. sweet and fruity with notes of caraway. The mouthfeel is clean and simplistic and the bitterness low. Not overly exciting.

Pours with a medium head that goes quickly and leaves no lace. Nice coppery color and light-medium bodied. Labels vary I got one with Stuart on it. Seems more like an amber than a pale. Definitely not hoppy but a good mix of malts and hops. As a collector I got lucky and found a couple of singles @ $1.50 in Wells, Me.

Bottled
Copper brown, not much head. Dish water aroma: metallic, lemony, notes of toffee. Mild toffee-fruity hoppy flavor, slightly sweet. Light session-type body. Some chewy malts in the finish.
