I tried this beer off the tapper at the brewery as part of a four sample flight whilst traveling through Menomonie, Wisconsin. It poured a clear golden with thin white ring head that is not leaving any lace. The scent had grain and Belgian yeast notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with Belgian malt base and grain and bitter finishing hop presence. The mouthfeel was medium in body with subtle carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

Received in trade.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a deep golden color with a two finger's worth of white foamy head that glistened and slid off at a mild pace. Some stringy lace, but sliding into the beer.
The aroma had some Belgian yeasty sweetness rolling over some honey, grassy to earthy semi-spicy hops, light barnyard, and a little bit of funky sort of oil-like sweat (interesting, but it wasn't bothersome to me, just different).
The flavor was moderately Belgian sweet pulling in the honey and spicy tones to amplify a pretty good balance. Funky sort of Belgian sweet biscuit-like aftertaste.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt fine, somewhat low but not bothersome. ABV felt on par as projected by the brewer.
Overall, I liked this one and see it as a good job by a Wisconsin brewer that I wouldn't mind having again.

From notes on 5/29. Light colored body. Really dry spicy beer. I’m not too big on this style and this one doesn’t help push me more into it.

L: Pours hazy straw under a 3” white to cream colored rocky foam cap that lasts forever and hugs the side of the glass on the way down.
S: Nose starts with some big spice, then there is some citrus and a suggestion of grape, a little banana with some floral notes.
T: The palate starts fruity with citrus, grapes, bananas, pears and oranges and pepper in the finish. Has a dry finish with a moderate hop bitter accent.
F: The body starts out a little anorexic but it plumps up a little over time as the effervescence grows. Creamy with very soft carbonation. Slight alcohol warmth, not hot or solventy, not astringent.
O: A big fruit cocktail of a beer that starts a little thin but ends up as a refreshing drink.

On-tap at Three Cellars, Franklin, WI:
Pours golden with a thin lasting head that leaves lacing.
The smell is of cotton candy/bubblegum and spiced bread.
The taste drops off from the nose. Some candy is there, with a touch of honey-like sweetness. A bit chalky and yeasty/bready in the finish.
Easy enough to drink.
