Jan 3, 2009 Pours a hazy amber with a rapidly dissipating beige head. Sweet candiy nose. Drier in the mouth than I expected. Hints of dark fruit and candy are complimented well by a nice bitterness. Long slightly sweet finish.

Dec 20, 2008 2007 version. Coppery amber color with a slight head. Smells very sweet with a tad bit of tartness. Some yeast up front, but not overpowering, followed by some pepper spice and a thin hop finish.

Dec 15, 2008 Pours hazy chestnut with a thin tan head. The nose was solid with dried fruit, spice and caramel. The flavor was the same but a bit bland. Definitely not the best Allagash has to offer, so should not be their Grand Cru.

Dec 5, 2008 Draft at the Comet.
Pours a hazy light gold in color. Very nice two inches of head on top of the beer. Smell is citrus fruits, yeast and a bit of spice. Taste is even more of the citrusy and light fruits. Very smooth and easy drinking. Well balanced and enjoyable.

Dec 1, 2008 A very tasty ale with notes of orange marmalade, currant and pepper. Not life-changing, but very good and satisfying overall. Recommended.
