| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Dec 1, 2007 Bottled at Akkurat, Stockholm. Clear roast red,smallfirm head. Sweet with clean, hard mouthfeel. Evident nutty/woody flavour that I assume is derived from the pecans, Low bitterness. A bit one-dimensional, and the malt profile is well simplistic. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 26, 2008 Bottle... Backus’s Backdoor Bash ‘08...Clear amber ale with orange highlights and a small, creamy, white head. Decent, swirling, hurricane-like retention. Faint aroma of pecans. Light to medium-bodied with medium carbonation. Well-balanced, but thin. A little nutty with only a rumor of residual sweetness. Crisp, fairly clean, watery and refreshing.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 5, 2007 Pours a transparent orange bronze with a thin-lacing ring of white head. Aroma of grassy earthy grainy doughy malts and a hint of pecans. Body starts fairly dry and earthy with some mild bittering hops and toasty character toward an otherwise bland finish. An interesting concept, but could be done more like Rogue HazelNut Brown Nectar. Cletus (5060), Connecticut, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 14, 2008 Pours amber with a white head. It’s pretty obvious that they use the same base recipe for all their fruit beers. Smells of pecan pie. Tastes of pecans. Not as artificial tasting as their other fruit beers I’ve tried.
