| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 17, 2009 Bottle - thanks BuckeyeBoy. Glowing amber pour with a thin beige head. Nice aroma is a blend of sweet citrus and maltiness. A bit of faded hops. Red licorice comes to mind... Tastes of faded florals, caramel, and grassey. Comes through a bit aged. Still pretty decent.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 2, 2008 Bottle. Pours a golden copper color that is slightly cloudy with a foamy tan head. Very, nice malt aroma but also a bit toasty. Aroma is very nice, but not much there. A great palate balance. Nutty and malty, some caramel sweetness a toasty malt and more nuttiness. There is a very pleasant hop balance. This is a good beer from beginning to end. Bier brauen (213), Bremerton, Washington, USA
