| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 1, 2009 12 oz bottle from Moneghans. Pours a deep reddish hued amber with an average frothy beige head that leaves no lace, might be my glass though. Aroma of butter bread with some weird fruit preserves spread across, pretty much yuck. Luckily that weird buttery berry concoction of an aroma doesn’t carry over to the flavor and lots of vanilla dominates with decent hops rounding out the aftertaste. Fuller bodied with rather fizzy carbonation. Not alot going on here but drinkable. Taverner (863), San Ramon, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Mar 5, 2009 Vanilla and malty nose. Flavor is caramel malts, not much else. Notes of dark caramel, bitterness from the malt and sweetness from the malt. Very much like an English Bitter. Pours amber brown with white head. 6ROW (258), corpus christi, Texas, USA

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Feb 8, 2009 Bottle into Sam Adams Lager glass.
Pours hazy dark copper with a thin, one finger fizzy light khaki head.
Nose starts off with a sugary sweet strawberry fruity note. Unbelievably sweet.
Taste follows suit - cloyingly sweet caramel and berry-like fruit note, with some pure sugar sweetness mixed in. It’s like they forgot to hop this batch or something. Slightly metallic.
Restrained carbonation, syrupy body. Sticky. Rciesla (3750), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA

Sweet and malty upfront with caramel, toffee, and vanilla. Hopped with a mild bitterness and some light spices. decent. esjaygee (1578), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA

Taste of spice, malt with a spicy finish. Some cola like qualities to this one (like some of their other beers too).
