| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 6, 2004 Aroma is of sweet lager. Great dark red color. Head is perfect, not too rocky, but resilient non the less. Very smooth to drink. Full to medium mouthfeel. Big malty taste, hops are subdued and are more bitter toward a fizzy finish. Not a bad beer. lithy (1750), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 12, 2009 500 ml bottle purchased at Lukas in Overland Park, Kansas. Pour is mostly clear caramel brown, cola, with a two inch tan head that falls fairly quick. Aroma of sweet caramel toffee malt, toasty bread grain, and some apple fruit sweetness. There is also a faint roasted background, just a whisper. Taste is the toasted grain and sweet malt initially, with the apple fruit elements trailing in the finish. The roast is not present until the longish finish. Palate is medium to thin, highly carbonated. This is a smooth, drinkable beer, but just a bit too sweet for my liking.
