hopdog (5527), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 18, 2009 750ml bottle corked and crowned bottle. Bottle stamped #256 (out of?). Obviously, 2005 Vintage. Poured a medium and cloudy amberish color with a huge sized off white head. Aromas of fruitiness, some oak, yeastiness/bready, citrus, and a light funkiness. Tastes of wood, fruity, lighter breadiness, vanilla, and some spiciness. Lighter funkines was in the finish as well. This one grew on me the more and more I drank it! Alcohol content well hidden. Rciesla (3500), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Oct 16, 2008 Bottle shared by BrianK. Pours an amber body with 1 finger frothy head. Sweet malt vinegar balsamic oaky etoh. Dark fruit with esters woody citrus. Some orange with a hint of honey. Sephiroth (66), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Sep 10, 2008 Pours with moderate carbonation. Sunset orange in color. Aroma is malty, with grassy hops. A sourness lurks.
Taste is fresh and aggressive. The slight sourness is balanced by the malt and the yeast. Tastes like it could have been oak aged for a short time. Mouthfeel is good, and viscous for the style. I’d have another if I wasn’t so tired.

Sammy (3934), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Feb 3, 2008 A great unique beer, 2 years old that had funkiness and a good sourness. Malt and yeast in the nose. Medium cloudy, pale appearance. Lacey. Initially sweet yeast that gives way to controlled sourness.
A rare one. Pailhead (2572), Allen Park, Michigan, USA Oct 11, 2007 Courtesy of Styles
Bottle: big creamy and yeasty aroma with moderate raisin. It pours a hazy bright orange with a moderate creamy off-white head that lasts a minute or so. The flavor starts very yeasty with some raisin. It finishes with faint floral hops, chocolate, faint sour fruit, light oxidation, and faint acidity. It’s medium bodied with a creamy texture and light carbonation. goldtwins (4078), Nesconset, New York, USA Sep 12, 2007 Poured a hazy deep amber color with a small white head. The aroma and flavor were malty with fruity ester notes. The finish was dry. Lively mouth-feel.
