Siletz Wooly Bully

Brewed by Siletz Brewing and Public House
Style: Zwickel/Keller/Landbier
Siletz, Oregon USA

Bottle: Hazy, unclear light copper color with a small head that fades fast. The aroma is light yeast, some sour notes of something that isn’t supposed to be sour and a little apple. The taste is like a hoppy Miller or something. The body is full and fluffy. Not bad. Thanks jake65 for sharing.

Bottle. Orange-red pour with a white head. Aroma of light earthy hops and some caramel malt. Flavors of caramel malt, and earthy bitter hops come through. Somewhat gritty mouthfeel with a earhy-bitter finish.

An amber/gold pour with a nice lite tan head with a good lace. A cmplex aroma of yeast and an applish fruity aroma. Sweet malty first step followed by a bitter that is pleasnat. A solid palate with solid carbonation. All round good beer that is a good drinker and a surprise.

Thanks to decaturstevo for sharing this bottle with us at the Tennessee Spring(ish) Tasting! Poured amber in color with a head that was just a small tint off of being white. The aroma was sweet with fruits, honey, and a hint of malts. The flavor had spices and malts that left it sweet and a touch of earthiness. Medium body.

Tasted at the Tennessee Spring(ish) Tasting held in Knoxville, TN on 3/10/2007. Bottle shared by decaturstevo. Thanks Steve... Wooly Bully is an interesting brew. The aroma has a chewy, sweet, caramel quality. It reminded me a lot of freshly sparged beer wort. The flavor is equally unique and memorable - fruity malt, vinous, slightly sour, some vinegar as well. There is only a mild hoppiness. This beer is a murky orange/brown color, has a medium-full body, and feel good on the palate. I really enjoyed this interesting beer. I think Siletz is now available in NW Ohio, so hopefully I can find another bottle next time I visit my parents...

Bottle at the Knoxville Spring(ish) tasting. Pours bright orange with a thin beige head. The aroma has some light cinnamon, hints of buttered bread, and quite a bit of something that reminds me of soured pomegranate. The flavor has a distinct sourness to it, with zest, some interesting (but not bad) vegetal notes, and something that reminds me of cactus fruit. The finish is a little bit buttery, and leaves a prickly aftertaste. I think I’ve decided that I like this one.

Sampled at the Knoxville tasting courtesy of decaturstevo, thanks Steve. This was a surprise and one of the first beers I tried. Pours an orange color with a thick white head on it. Smell is sweet and slightly hoppy, and really fruity. Taste is smooth and refreshing. There is a big hit of fruity flavors in the taste. Very refreshing, and really this would be an awesome summer beer. Thanks Steve!

Golden orange, decent white head. Toasty, cinnamony aroma, perhaps a hint of brown sugar, too. Surprisingly tart flavored, and rather spicy, as well. Maybe some hints of fruit (cherry?), too.
