12 oz single from Hop City, Atlanta, GA, USA a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately this had best before 11/27/09 dot-matrixed on the neck, this is one that slipped through the cracks.
Murky yellow pour with not much head, lace or retention.
Nose has a really fruity, very lemony clove and banana note. Tastes very bright despite being a little past the Best By date and the fruit does not manifest itself quite as strongly as it did in the aroma. We get some more light acidity and some more banana with a tangy edge.
More brightness and wheat inthe finish and aftertaste.
Drinks very easily and I’d imagine fresh and on draft this beer would be a big hit with. Although not exactly in the same league it reminded me strongly of Live Oak! That’s very high praise.
