Bottle conditioned - pour slowly to prevent the cloudiness. Clear medium gold color, lively carbonation and thick head of fluffy white foam. Clumpy lacing. Mild malt and a little grassy hop character in the aroma. First sip was much more hops than anticipated - masking the malt. Subsequent sips still have a citrus and flowery pungency with a mellow pilsner malt character well behind. Smooth body with long citrusy and ever so slightly spicy hop aftertaste. Bottle #714 of 1000 purchased Aug ’07 in Rochester Hills.

Apr 28, 2009 Thanks to Yaniv for bringing this to DLD! A few years old. Poured hazy paler golden with a loose-bubbled cap of white head. The aroma picked up soft, aged lighter fruity sweetness and a bit of pineapple.. lightly toasty and well-composed. The flavor found mostly pale malt at the core with pineapple, black pepper, and warm oxidized character around.. bitterness was mostly gone.. a bit hot at the finish. Medium-bodied with scratchy carbonation on the palate.. the oxidation made it rough right at the finish. This held up decently.

Aug 28, 2008 Bottle 135 of 1000. Poured a hazy light orange color. The head was white with good retention and lacing. Fruit forward nose including the likes of citrus and a bit of white grape. I also smelled cereal grains, some butter, and light grass. Medium bodied and slightly sweet with moderate bitterness. Effervescent with spruce, toffee, and a little apricot in the flavor. Nice.

Aug 26, 2008 thanks to general_gao! Clear gold pour with a very fluffy white head. Earthy hop aroma. Flavor was lemon, citrus, earth, pine. Bitter finish with a snappy amount of carbonation, dry. I think this one was well over a year old and has held up surprisingly well.
