look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

Pours a slightly hazy orange golden color with a huge off-white head (looks like it could be whipped cream) that leaves amazing, thick, sticky lacing on the glas.

Smell is spicy, citric, yeasty with a lot of herbal hops.

Taste is citric, spicy (cloves and more), floral hops and it finishes with yeast and tartness. Also a bit funky like saisons should be!

Has a light body with a lot of carbonation and finishes a bit dry with some oilyness. A very refreshing beer!

ack! more a note for myself than anyone else. had tried Billy the Mountain in a growler, did not do well, but to be fair I tried another of Upright's offerings a few days ago . . . #5 was much better. flavor was the biggest issue i had with BtM, and i think #5 shows i had a questionable sample earlier. a brewery to check out in the future.

Lovely color--cloudy and darker than most cloudy beers, like a slightly redder hefeweizen. Very hoppy but not "look how hoppy I can make this!" Nice restrained bitterness. A very competent effort, which is not meant to be damning with faint praise--in these days of beer trickery, I appreciate a good solid plain old beer.
