| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 19, 2008 Clear golden yellow, chunky heavy white head. Aromas chiefly of grain and hay, a little musty (I guess this is where one would apply the decription "barnyard"?). The musty yeastiness is apparent on the palate too, despite the clarity of the beer. Mostly sweetish malt, but some faint green-grape fruitiness too, and a little spice. Subtle and interesting. thill25 (218), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 10, 2008 750 ml corked bottle...Pours golden w/ a fluffy white head...mostly lasting and leaves some soapy lacing behind on my glass. The aroma was packed full of florals, and citrus (lemon). The flavor was earth, funk, fresh grassy hops, and hay. Great medium mouthfeel, with the perfect amount of carbonation. The finish was quite bitter, dry and puckering. The 8.5% was well concealed! Excellent beer! oberabcbbsok (686), Hoboken, Belgium

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 24, 2008 At first inspection, the bent staple retained cork created fear and confusion for me. Luckily the apparatus yielded to my forceful thumbs before I went looking for a screwdriver. Appearance is clear gold with a big white head. Aroma is dry and appley with just a hint of sour, but not much more. Taste is odd grapey, dry (mouth-drying, really) and carbonated to the point of being inseparable from its mouthfeel. Not sure what’s going on in this brew, but it’s kinda cool. Nice biscuity finish with slight warming alcohol. $6/25oz
