Shared at the Batch 600 Swamp Head release. Pours hazy yellow with a fluffy white head. Aroma of some belgian yeast and spices, maybe a hint off dead hops. Flavor follows similarly with belgian yeasty notes, some interesting spice, champagne notes and spritzy things going on here, and a hint of deadened hops. Light bodied, crisp, with high carbonation. This one was a little weird. Not sure how old it was (had this on August 2nd, 2014) but the weird spice note

Appearance: One of those gushers - pours a cloudy amber color with an impressive head; nice stickage and gobs of lace
Smell: Nectarine and pear with tones of hay underneath
Taste: Fruity, up front, with apple, pear and nectarine flavors building; pith, grass and hay develop, in the middle, along with a doughy character; very fruity, after the swallow, with a slightly vegetal aspect
Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate to high carbonation
Overall: Some carbonation problems with this beer (as others have noted) and I suspect it was better when fresher; still, an interesting prequel for the Prairie beers

Poured as one of the last of MASSIVE Philly beer week bottle share.
Poured into a 6 oz snifter
Bottles opens with a carbonation proving wisp. Huge, white, fluffy head that settles to a small film.
Smells musty with a bit of peaches.
Taste is tart with a bit of dry fruitiness
This beer is dry with a medium body.
I've been trying to get this for a while and glad it showed up. I will definitely look for again

From BeerAdvocate magazine Issue #58 (November 2011):
LOOK: Bright amber
SMELL: Ripe nectarine, faint mint, floral, earthy, citric zest, alcoholic esters
TASTE: Peachy, nectarine, leafy, creamy, hoppy, bitter herbs, green peppercorn, dry, pithy, raw, musty
Pretty damn enjoyable. Nice balance between fruitiness, hops, dryness and drinkability. Stone fruit running wild really makes this a unique brew. Great use of hops. Really happy to see this beer pour bright; brewer's attention to detail shows.

A: Golden honey hue with an absolutely huge head--gushes out of the bottle
S: Pineapple, cider, granny smith apples; this smells a bit hoppy and funky and fruity and delicious; some grains but mostly apple and pineapple juice
T: Dry and fruity--apples and pears mainly; quite dry actually with some subtle spicy grainy presence
F: Bubbly and dry--kind of like champagne, but it works well here
O: I really dig this beer; my first from Redbud and definitely not my last; but a warning, this is a GUSHER
