FatPhil (1960), Espoo, Finland May 5, 2008 330ml bottle (Mallaskukko, Turku)
Orange to red, tiny head. Walnut aroma. Initial taste has a spike at a single ester. John says "paint", I’m not so sure. It’s closer to apple scrumpy. However, it’s a wonderfully walnutty taste. A little fizzy palate, I’d prefer it if it were less fizzy, it would be smoother then.
padrefan98 (556), (San Diego) Santee, California, USA Jul 17, 2008 Bottle purchased at Pizza Port Carlsbad bottle shop. Wow lots and lots of bubbles. Huge head. First few sips were powerful with tart fruit, pepper, very light easy to drink. Later the flavors dissappeared on me. Still very refreshing on a hot southern California evening. BuckeyeBoy (1063), Boise, Idaho, USA Jul 15, 2008 Bottle Pours out a gold topped with a white head. Aroma of pepper, spice, and everything nice. Along with some fruit. Tast of a fruit dish with some spice. Thanks BückDich jake65 (1182), Meridian, Idaho, USA Jul 4, 2008 Bottle: Dark yellow pour with a small white head. Smells dusty, dry, floral, and spicey. Earthy. Tastes of sweet malt into spicey honey. Light floral bitters. More honey and some citrus. Thanks Jordan. BückDich (4491), Boise, Idaho, USA Jul 1, 2008 Bottle: Pours a golden color with nice head, a little gushing. The nose is bright and funky with yeast, some sulfur, sweet grape, pear and melony fruit notes. Nice and pleasing. The flavor is robust and zesty with some lime and pomegranate, peach and pear. Cobbwebb and horse blanket of course. Some nice apple and light cocoa. Good! Indiana_Red (1445), Boise, Idaho, USA Jul 1, 2008 Bottle pours a cloudy orange with a quick lively white head that dissipates to a ring. Musty tart aroma. Sour apples and pears. Nice soft fruity flavor. Not very spicy. A bit sweet. Lively and light and shy. Percoscious mabe.
Nice.
