Mar 14, 2008 500ml bottle shared courtesy of Miver. Poured a medium to deepter orangish color with a large sized off white head. Aromas of nuts and caramel. I wasn’t really getting too much else. Tastes of the same nuttiness, caramel, grains, and some cardboard.

Jul 24, 2007 Farm Ale Altbier-on cask @HopfestNC-pours no head and copper color. Aroma is oaky, farmy, yeast, malt. Taste is oaky, farmy, malt, secondary vinegar, some yeast. [Wow, I am guessing they brought more than one cask to the Hopfest, and I got my taste of this from ‘the other one’ than the 2 previous RBers, as they mention nothing about a vinegar presence]

Mar 14, 2008 Poured a hazy golden color with a small, white head that left light lacing on the glass. Alcohol really stuck me as high, in both the aroma and taste. I believe the bottle said this was <5%. Was earthy, grainy, light citrus, wood, and a bit of sweeter caramel.

Apr 23, 2007 At 2007 Hickory Hops, on cask, as "Farm Brew Organic Altbier". Cloudy Orange, very little head. Yeasty, bready aroma. Smooth, viscous palate. Pronounced Chocolate flavor at first, then herbal bready flavors in the finish. Dry, vaguely citrusy finish. Nice stuff.
