Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

Pours with a fairly clear orange body and a minimal off-white head. Aroma of bananas, clove, citrus, white grape, and sugar. Flavor is very tart and sweet, peppery and spicy, with notes of citrus and banana. Rather earthy finish. Solid, though Id prefer the clove and pepper be toned down.
On a night of tasting piss-water beer, this was a welcomed experience. Amber with frothy white head. Aroma was sweet, floral, some herbs and spice, citrus. Good mouthfeel. Creamy. Some light fizz. Taste was sweet, fruity, some alcohol. Nice. Very nice.
Clear, bubbly pour. Light , thick foamy head. Citrusy, fruity smell. Tastes fruity and alot of citrus. Refreshing brew.
