Mar 15, 2009 Brewed in the USA........ Pours avery dark brown color with a super foamy off white head that quickly dissipates. Aroma of spices, earth and musty notes. Taste has a slight deli meat flavor with some caramel and spices. The mouthfeel is very spritzy at first but finishes with some sourness. Pretty interesting ale.

Mar 11, 2009 750ml bottle shared by BeerGestapo. Thanks Mike. Started foaming over as soon as the cap was cracked. Dark brown pour topped by a massive but quickly diminishing head. Coriander and earth on the nose. The flavor reminded me a lot of a farmers market, fresh produce, meaty, slightly musty. Very nice mouthfeel, carbonation has a nice zing to it. Not what I was expecting but different and pleasant.

Mar 9, 2009 Bottle shared with the brewer at Capones PBW event. Pours a light hazy brown with amber notes and a medium light tan head that left some lacing. The aroma was on the light side. Getting some caramel in there with a touch of wit spiciness. A good bit different then the White Orchard for sure (that one was loaded with spices). Some light floral notes. The flavor had a bit more going on with a mix of floral and earthy notes, caramel and the wit spicy notes.

Mar 8, 2009 Bottle used to start a night that included an expensive italian dinner and a strip club off. A great start indeed! Poured with a black hue - tarry look to it, with no head whatsoever. Aroma of some spices - peppermint? lots of wheat, and citrus. Hints of dark fruits, coffee and chocolat as well. Flavor has a nice wheatey, fruity taste. Spices dominate the latter half of the taste making this beer pretty darn good!
Medium mouthfeel with light carbonation.

Mar 6, 2009 Darker brown color with a rather large head and an aroma of mild spice, wheat, roast, and some citrus. Flavor has a nice wheat/citrus/fruity mix that is pretty good. Pleasant feel and lots going on for a beer of this style. Very interesting.
