gemini poured a cloudy, copper color with a two fingered width, off white head.  The aroma is clean and inviting, smelling of fresh, pungent hops.  The body is smooth, with a little honey like sweetness.  Gemini finishes with a light alcohol warmth and leaves a little bit of hanging lace.  Overall, this is a great beer.  The unfiltered hoppe lends cask-like characteristics to this beer, as well as toning down the unearthly just a bit.  Gemini takes two very, very good beers from Southern Tier and makes a fantastic blend.  This is one of their all-time bests and is a must try.  

The ultimate resource for beer drinkers!
