Pours a three finger white head that fades quickly to a ring leaving some lace. Clear pale amber color. Light carbonation and medium bodied. Sweet grass nose. Flavor has hints of honey and fruit but a drying finish. Replaces Portsmouth Lager. Best before Nov 2009, $8.99 for a 6-pak at Market Basket Concord, NH.

Star anise, cinammon, cardomon flavour this smooth drinkable lager. Slight spicy coloured body with white head. A little spicy, noteably cinammon spicy aroma. Medium mouthfeel, drinkable.

Bottle. Pours a very hazy tawny amber with a thin to medium white head. Smells a little like old bubblegum, with a hint of spicee Medium body, kind of metallic and grainy. Finishes rather dully, but still easy drinking.

Hazy, golden amber appearance with a large, white head and a fair amount of lacing. Nice toasted malt aroma in the forefront with wheat and spicy hops trailing. Modestly sweet taste of yeast, light citrus and spices. Medium bodied mouthfeel that finishes a little on the gummy side.

Draught @ Delaney’s. Hazy pale golden with scant off-white head and scattered lacing. Bouquet is herbal, floral, and some starfruit. Clean and straightforward palate with some granularity for texture. Has a witbier character with coriander notes. Good character, with solid malt backbone and nice herbal hop notes.

this beer was okay. Certainly not Smuttynoses best offering by far. But still worth a taste. Refreshing and light.

Nose is very yeasty, maybe a bit of wheat, lemon, pepper. Appearance is a bit cloudy, golden, some head, some lacing. Surprising body and hops in the palate, somewhat syrupy feel. I liked it.
