| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Nov 5, 2009 Just not my style of beer, but overall the maltiness was lacking. Maybe a good session beer for the maltheads out there. vulcanmeister (102), La Grande, Oregon, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 1, 2009 Pours an amber color with a small quickly receding white head. The aroma is malt. Flavor is sweet, malty, with faint bitter hoppy aftertaste. Good mouthfeel, smooth and well balanced. Good brew. Gregis (1132), Shawnee, Kansas, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 24, 2009 Pours a hazy dark tea with a small beige head that diminishes to a thin cap. The nose is of sweet, burnt sugar and dark bready malt notes. There is a slightly odd plastic/artificial note in there as well, but fortunately it fades with time as the beer warms. Light-bodied and assertively carbonated with a drying, mildly astringent finish. The flavor follows the nose after the aforementioned "off" note has faded. This is a solid session beer but not much more. cgarvieuk (4198), Edinburgh, Scotland

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 19, 2009 Bottle. Poured a clear amber color with a very small off white head. Aroma of caramel, toasted bread and nuts. Flavor had many of the same components, but with a touch of sweetness and a more prominent fruit presence. Dry in the finish, and not that great of an after taste. Flavor was pretty mild and just ok overall. potbeercollege (386), Boulder, Colorado, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Oct 15, 2009 Draft at the Sink. Nice dark amber color, medium tan head. Malt dominates aroma, notes of caramel. A mostly malty taste, somewhat sweet, fairly bland. jjuf1853 (479), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 8, 2009 Bottle @ 30,000 ft on Alaska Airlines on my way to Seattle. Poured a clear amber color with a medium sized beige head. Some roasted malt and caramel notes in the aroma. Flavor is decent with a mixture of mostly malt and a bit of hops. Quite easy to drink, especially on a 6 hour flight from FL to Seattle, WA. neepsntatties (345), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 7, 2009 12 oz. bottle. Colour... typical amber colour (no surprise there). Nose... not much. Some very faint hops and malt. Palate... decent carbonation but just not much going on. Yes, you can tell that there are some hops and malt, and some biscuity character but not much complexity.
