Had on-tap at the Capitol City Brewing Company location near Metro Center station.

A: Nice golden yellow with slight haziness. 1 finger of head retains pretty well and leaves lacing down the side of the glass.

S: Yeasty with a somewhat peppery zing.

T: Strong yeast tastes with faint maltiness. There was a strange characteristic sourness (like sourdough bread) which prevented me from rating this higher. Peppery spiciness is again perceptible.

M: Light and crisp at the finish.

D: One of the more drinkable brews at Capitol City Brewing. However, this beer would have been better without the questionable sourness.

On-tap at the World Beer Fest Brewer's party served a hazy straw yellow with a nice frothy cream head that slowly diminished and left decent lacing. Aroma was crisp sweet malts and Belgian spice. The taste was a nice spicy amount of sweet malts and slight yeast. The beer was light and quite refreshing. This one was very enjoyable.
