| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 30, 2008 Bottle. Poured a clear copper color with a thick, rocky off-white head that slowly receded and left some spotty lacing. Aroma of lightly toasted caramel malts, a light metallic aroma, and some light earthy hops. Smooth, lightly sweet entry with a bit of ice tea flavor that leads into a light fruitiness and some soft caramel that transitions into a light noble hoppiness on the finish. Low carbonation and smooth on the palate. Definitely an easy drinker. drismyhero (815), Tacoma, Washington, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Apr 9, 2002 Sits great on the palate. Looks nice and has a good boquet. A very decent all-around beer with no real outstanding qualities, but no really terrible qualities either. Pretty linear in character and a bit sweet but not bad. drjay44 (814), Salida, Colorado, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 11, 2008 Rather unflavorful to my over hopped palate. But, good balance and pleasant overall. I think it would be better as a summer beverage, and I can tell that a week in the Utah desert would raise this up to a 4.5 or better. It is just a little light to what I have the good fortune to be consuming recently. beachbum25 (802), Powellville, Maryland, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 1, 2006 22 oz Bomber-Trade w/after4ever. Pours a beautiful mahogany/copper color w/a small off white head. Malty, grassy, slightly roasted aroma. Sweet, roasted, floral, malty taste. Just enough hops to balance out the finish. Long grainy hoppy finish. Very smooth, very drinkable, very enjoyable. Would definately be a good sesson beer. I’ve always wanted to try this beer and have finally gotten the chance. Thanks for the trade!! tarheels86 (799), Washington DC, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Oct 19, 2008 Pours a clear amber with a very small head. High carbonation. Aroma is pretty much nothing, maybe the smell leftover in the kitchen after throwing a kegger. The taste overall is very sweet but unrefined. I was disappointed by this. More than anything it reminded me of a Coors Light but darker to the eye. After trying the Alaskan Winter Ale I was pretty sure anything else from this brewery would be a step up...I was wrong.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 20, 2007 This alt beer sets up with a deep amber color woth a medium head. It shows nice notes of sweet malt on the nose and then within the palate the malt brings some denseness along with the floral notes of the hops. It finishes with quite a blanced impression. grimreeser (797), Minnesota, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Nov 4, 2006 Pours a nice copper with a decent tan head. Sweet malty aroma, mostly caramel. Nice sweetness, easy to drink. Palate is a little thin and fizzy. OG has the bestest mom in the whole wide world! Thank her for me. jujubeast6000 (795), Houston, Texas, USA
