Bright white head with medium retention leaves spotted sheets as it recedes to skim surface. Lemon joy and mild hop aromas. Flat plastic and sour summer fruits - huh?. Dry, abrupt finish. Boy, did I want to like this more... JoeMcPhee (5025), Jackson Heights, New York, USA
| 0.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/20 | Nov 19, 2009 Very, very pale beer with a touch of haziness on the pour. Oily nose with lots of acetone and rancid coriander character. Spoiled fruit, rotted malt and a harsh spicey extract. No redeeming qualities to speak of. Rciesla (3777), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA
| 0.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/20 | Nov 6, 2009 Bottle at Pauls. Pours a white gold body with a white head. Smells like curdled milk and lemon grain puke. Regurgitated grain and dank moldy mess. Horrid. emacgee (1892), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA

The nose shows mothballs, Belgian yeast esters, corn, wheaty, curacao. Flavor is fruity, peach, estery, thin, yeasty. Palate has an astringent bite to it. BuckeyeBoy (1674), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 3, 2009 Bottle Thanks to ditmier for sharing Bottle 74 of 94. Pours out a cloudy pair juice topped with a white head. Aroma was of spice, light pepper, and some lemon zest. Taste was more of the light spice, some banana, and light belg yeast. A lot going on here. Dickinsonbeer (3497), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA

I couldn’t believe this brewery could make something even worse than their saison or Tripel. This HAS to be their worst beer, because it may just be the worst beer I have ever had. Everyone says that Steelback is one of the worst. Nope- not even close- this stuff is so damn offensively gross I wanted to throw up upon just smelling it. Complete isovaleric bomb- verging on the smell of puke itself- acetaldehyde, butter, and DMS- how can one beer have all the major flaws? Parmesan cheese throughout, milky lactose, and dirty baby diaper- wow another major flaw in newbie homebrews! Lacto- sour - mash that was left out for a couple days and rotting spent grain- all the worst flaws, smells, and tastes in the brewing world all in 1 bottle. Truly a monumental achievement in brewing history. Cant I rate just one beer with a negative score? Cletus (5058), Connecticut, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 1, 2009 Pours a hazy amber with a white head. Smells of coriander, some sweet malt, yeasty. Tastes breaddy and sweet with some citrussy elements.
