| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Nov 28, 2007 Tap at Blind Tiger: (Courtesy of MaxDaddy) Deep hazy orange with a thin white head. Mild wheat malt aroma, with a hint of subdued lemon peel and yeast. The flavor has a musty lemon peel character, along with mild yeast presence and a very weak finish. Very mild overall. Simple, not much to it. LyndaNova (497), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

Aroma is of light malts, light spice, light fruits and light brown sugar with grassy notes. Taste is of bread/dough and subtle, grassy hops. Light to medium body and smooth with low carbonation. Ending is of light brown sugar notes. Tmoney99 (4792), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 16, 2007 Cloudy copper orange with some ruby at the edges. Carbonation
is heavy and is highly populated in clumps toward the top of
the glass. Nice white head is crisp and fine and has good
retention.
Fruit galore in the nose. Green apple, apple cider, pear,
peach, spicey and herbacious, and showings of apricot. Fruit
bomb just great smelling.
Not at all what I expected in the taste. Cramel malt is chewy,
heavy, and thick. Chewy mouthfeel yet light and spritzey.
Still overly suprised with the depth of malt which wasn’t
noticeable in the aroma. Fruit is much more laid back in the
mouth then compared to the nose. Not enormously complex but
genuinely refreshing. More pear than apple unlike the nose.
Nice zesty finish. nolankowal (855), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 23, 2007 4 year old bottle shared by shared by shigadeyo, thanks again! Hazy orange pour with an off white head. Aromas of yeast, pale malt, light citrus, and spice. Flavors were mainly pale malts, yeast and some spices...perhaps a bit of grass. SMooth and soft mouthfeel with a slight boozey quality and a sweet finish. Not bad. shigadeyo (2263), Harrison, Ohio, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 5, 2007 Allagash Speciale Reserve Ale (Batch #8 from 2003?)
Date: 3/28/2007
Serving: 750 mL corked and caged bottle (brought by me).
Event: Columbus Wednesday night tasting.
Location: nolankowal’s place.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Fruity with some herb and spices. Slight oxidization noticeable as well.
Appearance: Murky golden color with a small white crown and some suspended yeast specks (this stuff had been rolling around in a cooler all day).
Flavor: Light malts, fruit, and spice.
Palate: Medium to light body and generously carbonated.
Overall: Refreshing and crisp. Not too bad for a 3-4 year old bottle of Wit beer! It has been stored in a refigerator ever since it arrived at the store I got it from, so I think that helped... sliffy (2012), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 29, 2007 Speciale Reserve Bottle that I’m told is 4 years old, shared by shigadeyo: Pours a hazy gold, with a white head. Aroma, some pale malts, spice, some grassy and herbal notes. Flavor, some light malts, bready, some spice. Pretty good for a 4 year old belgian ale.
