The hell you say?!?! This one poured a pillow stuffed full of white foam with a quarter-sized freckle of spices that stuck to one side of the mug so that I had to turn it about to face my cow-tongue at point-blank range. Black flecks twirled and floated to the bottom in a blizzard of carbonation. The spices kind of overrode everything but not to its total detriment. The first time I had this I thought it was very special, the second time not so special and the third time so-so, so I'll give it a medium high grade for a spiced yeasty white. Unique but that uniqueness slowly evaporates.
