| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 7, 2007 Bottle. Pours dark brown with a tan colored head. Aroma is sweet malt, dried cherries, wheat, sugar. Flavor is light alcohol, caramel, spice, dark fruits, some molasses, brown sugar. Palate is medium to full bodied, medium carbonation, finished sticky sweet. A decent brew for sure but nothing earth shattering. Naven (878), Poway, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 13, 2006 This beer looks awesome. At first taste, it’s really flavorful. Some banana and nut flavors are present throughout. For some reason, I got a very sour finish with this one. Not terrible, but overall, it didn’t do that much for me.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 11, 2006 Thanks to SecretSanta Degarth for sending this my way. Nice black body with a light tan head. Aroma is similar to Belgian beers, fruits such as fig, cherry along with a nice yeasty accent. Taste is very nice, similar to a Abt/Quad in my opinion. Very complex fruit notes, some extremely light wheat. Smooth yet slightly spice ending. Overall a very nice beer. glennmastrange (866), hobe sound, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 6, 2008 Bottle. Moderate malt aromas of dark bread, toasted and mild coffee, light notes of perfume and earth for the hops and yeast, with raisin and a faint spice smell in the background. Head is small and wispy with a yellowish white color. The head is fully diminishing and has no lacing. Color is a dark brown. Flavor is heavily sweet and lightly acidic to start and finishes moderately sweet, lightly acidic and bitter, and both sour and salty. Palate is medium to full, creamy almost syrupy and has a lively carbonation. It finishes metallic, lightly astringent and moderately alcoholic. Sweet and a bit of a thin feeling at the end of each sip, a some unwanted aftertastes were downfalls, but still a good drinker. cab (863), Denmark
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Nov 20, 2006 Bottle. Not the best beer from avery, aroma like valnut. Malted wheat, i cant find it.! sorry. jzzbassman (850), New Albany, Mississippi, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 23, 2006 Poured dark red with a slight tan head. Aroma is musty, sweet, and hot alcohol. As flavor warms, the maltiness really begins to take shape, when cold the alcohol is too prominent. The fruity esthers they speak of are nowhere near as center stage as a Schneider, taking place on the back end, obscured by the sweetness. drjay44 (818), Salida, Colorado, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 27, 2009 22 oz bottle....Pours a thinnish dark head, over a dark brown body.....nose of bready malt layers, with additional fruits.....tastes of many fruits and malts with hop presence. Mouthfeel excellent. These comment are from notes of a tasting done in August 2006. BeerVirgin72 (814), Pataskala, Ohio, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 18, 2009 Had on tap at Jackie O’s Anniversary Party. Was actually given this beer for free. That always makes it better, no? I love them sweet and malty so this one was a keeper. Sweety flavors of vanilla, brown sugar and toast. Slight hop finish. Loved it.
