Sample at the Columbus Ratebeer gathering at ogglethorp’s 11/20/08: Thanks to rogueone for sharing bottle #313! This brew is a hazy translucent orange color with a thick and fizzy off-white head that recedes steadily. Thin rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma is barnyard-esque with notes of citrus and grain. Medium-bodied with flavors of musty malt, yeast and honey roasted nuts. Slight funk in the background throughout. The finish is grainy malt and light hops that linger a bit. Good all around.

(Bottle 75 cl) Very cloudy orangey golden with an off-white head. Sweetish alcoholic malty aroma. Quite full-bodied with sweet malts and fruit and sesame seed flavours. Alcoholic finish. 311008

750mL bottle, courtesy of Schutzenliesel. Dark orange, creamy white head. Honeyed orange aromas warm to notes of yeasty rice and sake. Sweet rice and alcohol flavors round with touch of flowers. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, yeasty fruity finish. Abnormal is appropriate here, but for some reason I was actually digging it. Creative for sure…
