| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 22, 2008 Transparent copper amber with a spotty-lacing off-white head. Has a grainy toasty pale malty nose. Body starts slightly grainy and pale malty sweet with a hint of earthy bittering hops. Finishes slightly drier with an earthy, bittersweet, crisp finish. A decent amber ale. Cletus (5059), Connecticut, USA

Smells of citrus, pine resin, malt. Tastes spicy with some doughy hints. Mouthfeel is full with a yeasty finish. BückDich (4857), McCall, Idaho, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 22, 2007 Bottle: Amber color, light white head, nice lacing. Nose of pale malt and masa, some light caramel. Balanced amber, nothing stands out though, a tad thin in all regard. No reason to pick this up with what’s in the market here. Maybe the price point, only $2.75 a bomber. bhensonb (4384), Woodland, California, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 22, 2007 Strong malty caramel aroma with some floral hop. Slightly hazy, orange/red tinged amber coloer. The off-white head was enthusiastic but left rapidly. It did try to lace. Near medium in body with firm carbonation. Starts with caramel and floral malts. Finish is nicely balanced. It’s really good, and somewhat approximates an ESB. Skyview (4095), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 11, 2008 Picked up a single 22-oz bomber from LiquidSolutions.biz. Pours a semi-clear caramel amber brew with a fast dissolving off-white head that leaves behind a thing off-white ring. Aroma of dry caramel malt, a touch of iced tea and grassy hops. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonation with a powdery caramel and toffee malt flavor. Finish is slightly dry, a little gritty texture with a thin caramel aftertaste that quickly disappears. An average amber ale at best. badgerben (3610), Blaine, Minnesota, USA
