riversideAK (1755), Shoreline, Washington, USA Nov 19, 2008 Golden pour with a nice head. The aroma is super fruit and spicy. I got lots of fruit loops, orange, coconut, lemon, grass. Similar notes in the flavor, fruity, spicy, grassy, a good deal of coriander. Sweet, spicy finish with a touch of alcohol warmth. MatSciGuy (351), St. Paul, Minnesota, USA Oct 26, 2008 [Bottle] shared by skyview. Pours a cloudy gold with a small beige head. Aroma is white pepper and caramel. Flavor is more white pepper, caramel, and a touch of raisins. Somewhat grapey. Sammy (3241), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Oct 1, 2008 Hit the spot Grand Cru although one-dimensional corriander, it is drinkable sweet-spicey, with above average carbonation. Still very drinkable supporting yeast,decent looks and yeasty smell.
Thanks SuzyGreenberg (Ed Bottomley). Angeloregon (2023), Portland, Oregon, USA Sep 25, 2008 On tap at the Green Dragon in Portland, OR--Bright orange-amber body with a creamy whitish head and lots of lace. Full-on floral nose. Soapy sweet, fruity flavor. Yum Yum Yum. Thin smooth, undeveloped finish but very nice. JK (2509), uptown, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA Sep 14, 2008 From Skyview. Sweet but lots of hops. Coriander and lemon. Medium palate. This is an interesting combination of an ipa-like beer with a sweet Belgian ale. It is unusual and moderately successful. Extra poitns for experimentation.
