Dark amber in appearance, thin, lacy head. Moderately sweet nose- I've smelled it before but don't know the proper term- is it malty?
Almost no bitterness. Hints of rotated light cherry, with the same sweet character in the front. Slightly heavy mouth feel at first, but it dissipates quickly after swallowing.
Not bad, good, but not my style, I think.
Opened to a bit of foaming, but only lost a drop or two. Moderately hazy medium brown, with a touch of amber in its depths.
Belgian yeast notes on the nose, with a hint of spice. Medium roast flavor, very well balanced. Carbonation, followed by roasty notes, finished with a crisp and lingering bitterness. Notes of alcohol at the very end (not bad for 7.2%).
Great twist on a brown ale.
Very good beer. A little ester-y, suspended yeast, creamy head, very good flavor.

Malty bitter balance. Britishy yeast, but light. Good lingering bitterness on the back of the tongue that's wiped away each time you take a new sip.
Warms up nicely.
Unfiltered. Fine golden head. Unique green hoppy scent. Taste is the same, folowed by nice bitter hit that lingers refreshingly.
Got better by the end of the bottle.
And this is what we're doing tonight. I suppose we could have had Banik's book autographed if only we'd remembered to bring it.
Cidery in nose and flavor. Unfiltered, not a lot of body but lasting pleasant flavor.
I was shocked and dismayed to realize that we've not posted kitten photos in almost two years, so here is Chewbacca demonstrating how flexible he can be.
We finally went this year. It was pretty awesome, as evidenced by our aquisitions.
The first batch of larger tomatoes, clockwise from upper left:
Snowball
Ealiana
Caspian
Carmello
Blondkopfchen
Stupice
Hazel Mae
Black Prince
Technically we've had a small Chocolate Stripe and an unfortunate incident that's about to become a fried green tomato, but I think this is the first real harvest. From left to right these cherry tomatoes are: Gardener's Delight, Blondkopfchen, and something incorrectly labeled as Marvel Stripe that may actually be Stupice. There are more green on the vine and lots of flowers, so we look forward to trying everything else in the coming months.
