2011 Bottle at 60F in a Fantome Tulip. Thankfully not a gusherA – Poured a big pillowy-intensely sticky white head that diligently stuck around. The beer itself was a light orange, plenty of haze

S – Chili peppers with a touch of honey and floral notes. I get a “next morning campfire” ashiness on the nose as well.

T – Interesting. Despite the ashiness, there is a nice lemongrass taste with a bit of lactic tartness and horseblanket funk, ashy yet peach like finish with some dry tannins thrown in for good measure.My favorite part about this is the lemony citrus.

M – medium body with a big carbonation, very dry finish

O – Interesting ale. I like this quite a bit and it was enjoyable throughout.
