Starting back into beer reviews as well as beers I noramlly would not purchase. Trying to stray from the extreme for awhile. Poured into a Great Divide Yeti snifter.

A - hazy golden straw, 1/3 of fingers worth of white small, very small bubbles compose the head, thick lace to start with

S - bready and lemon nose start, like a lemon poppy seed cake, aromatic white wine grape juice - gewurztraminer or viognier; very similar to Stone 10 10 10

T - taste is much less pronounced, some DME, bready malt, very lame lemon accent, slight tart/bitter after taste

M - light bodied, good bubbles to it - enjoy it for the beer style

O - if this came in a can, i could see myself buying sixers of this for the summer, nice aroma really helps it and the flavor is just enough to make you feel like you got something and want more of it

Enjoyed this 12oz bottle out of a tall pilsner glass.

A: Pours a clear pale yellow hue with a thin white head that quickly dissipates down the side of the glass leaving a partial lace.

S: Spicy and sort of skunky aroma.

T: Similar spicy skunky flavor – coriander and some yeast notes.

M: Medium body and medium carbonation.

O: Weird spicy beer – nothing I would grab again.
