Reviewed 5/21/2009 (Bottle): Pours a golden light brown clear colored body, with a big foamy white head, good lacing, somewhat lasting. Funky aroma, some grains, some mustiness, not much hop aroma. Sweet and spicy smelling too. Spicy, sweet taste. A little drying, almost a little sour. Pretty tasty, refreshing. Carbonated.

Bottle: Pour was a deep gold with a large white head. A bit more sweet on the nose than I expected with a focus on candied sugar, some floral and citrus hoppiness and a noticeable brett character. Nice carbonation, flavor started out sweet and candy-like but then takes a right turn towards a very dry, floral tone. Very good stuff.

Bottled.A hazy amber beer with a lazing tan head. The aroma is sweet with notes of malt and caramel. The falvor is sweet with notes of malt, alcohol, and grapefruit, the alcohol gives it a good body and leaves a slight burn on the palate. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

750ml bottle from RSVP. Pours a golden cloudy color with a thin white head. Aroma of hops, dirt, and funk. Flavor is sweet malt at first, with a nice funky tang. Finish is bitter and dry with hints of citrus. Mouthfeel is super smooth and slightly acidic. It’s a funky beer with a lot of hops, what’s not to love!

Bottle at Butters Big Cellar Blowout. Pours an off-white head with a hazy copper body. Smells of tart, yeast, and caramel. Flavor is much the same. Refreshing.
