I acquired this in a trade. I sent a few Vermont beers in exchange for some mid-west beers. Taken from my cellar at 60 Degrees F and poured into a Ridel Bordeaux glass. Bottle Date: 10\/2011\u00a0<\/p>\n

A – Poured a 3-Finger head with a healthy mix of big and tight bubbles. Very nice head retention along the edges of the glass as it dissipated. Dissipation took 5 minutes to achieve 1-finger head.The beer is a smooth and hazy golden orange. You\u2019d think it was a light red ale but, against the light, this is a very orange drink with a lean toward VERY golden look.\u00a0<\/p>\n

S – Right on the nose is an explosion of wheat followed by that great wild \/ farmhouse yeast that you would expect from a beer like this. It\u2019s classified as a Barley Wine on RateBeer but I\u2019m getting wild \/ saison style. Great bits of orange peel and mild spices with a hint of cherries.\u00a0<\/p>\n

T – My nose deceives me. I\u2019m getting more barley wine characteristics that I was not expecting. There\u2019s a huge caramel matliness that hits immediately. This is followed by an intense bitterness that\u2019s almost sour like as if the back of the tongue is a Lambic Geuze There\u2019s a mild spice to this beer that I can\u2019t pinpoint. Wheat beer is the last thing I\u2019d think of in a blind taste test. It\u2019s a beer with an identity crisis for sure.\u00a0<\/p>\n

M – Solid explosion of carbonation on a single mouth-swish about 90% of the beer turns to big bubbles. It\u2019s light to medium bodied and the caramel malts and fleeting hops stick around long after swallowing I\u2019d say for about a minute.\u00a0<\/p>\n

O – I\u2019m not sure what to think of this beer. It\u2019s good but not great. Wheat turns to caramel turns to very malty notes which leads to very bitter middle of the tongue experience with a lingering caramel taste but the nose is nothing like the taste. Hard to rate…I\u2019m giving it a B+<\/p><\/div>\n
