Dec 31, 2009 750ml bottle from Premier Gourmet. Light golden colour with tall foamy lasting head. Aroma is strong on the corriander and spice, with noticeable floral nad citrusy lemon. Herbal spicy flavour, zest and slight carbonation. Yeasty and lavender noticeable, yet quite balanced. Refreshing, somewhat saison style impresion. Lingering floral aftertaste. Much more complex than a Hoegaarden.

Dec 29, 2009 750 ml bottle. Served in a tulip glass, the beer pours a straw gold color with a 2 inch frothy white head, even after a slow pour. Head retention is excellent, with a decent amount of lacing. Aroma is lemon peel, oranges, coriander, wheat, and a bit of a flowery smell which I assume is from the lavender in this beer. Taste is similar to the aroma, but the lavender flavor comes out more compared to the aroma. For whatever reason I’m just not into the lavender taste. Mouthfeel/body is light/medium, and it has high but soft carbonation which works well for this brew. Drinkability is good, the soft carbonation makes this beer smooth and easy to drink. Overall I think this is a good brew, but it’s not something I’d buy often unless I was in the mood for a lavender/flowery tasting beer.

Dec 27, 2009 75cl bottle bought in Portland. Pours a hazy golden, yellow color with a big, foamy white head. Tons of carbonation which keeps the mouthfeel lively. Aroma is citrus, piney, and I definitely pick up the lavender. Flavour is more pine, lavender and orange zest. Finishes a little flat. Okay I suppose.
