| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 16, 2009 22oz bottle from the brewery. Amber pour with no real head. Aroma is sweet malts with a touch of smoke. The smoke also appears in the flavor and it makes the standard-ish old ale a little more interesting. mcox90 (659), Wilton, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 5, 2007 22 oz bottle. Pours a red gold color with a small white head. The alcohol is well hidden. This one has a bit of a sweet taste, especially as it warmed. Tastes a bit like good chocolate covered cherries. This was a nice smooth ale and I really enjoyed it. jkaiser (227), Orlando, Florida, USA
