| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 30, 2009 12 oz. bottle from the Party Source. Pours a cloudy amber-gold color with some visible sediment and a big rocky off-white head that leaves some lacing. Light aroma of orange citrus, caramel, toast, and rye. Malty flavor, with notes of orange citrus, toast, and a little spice. Well-balanced, malty, and a bit sweet. Mild and light-medium bodied, with a dry finish. Good beer. hatchattack (20), Virginia, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 26, 2009 Bottle. good caramel malt aroma and then progressed into the tasting with a good balance between the sweetness of the malts and the strength of the hops.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 25, 2009 Bottle. Pours a dark orange to amber hue with a mostly sustaining offwhite head. Nose is modest malts- bread, caramel, light toffee. Flavor is pale bread-like malts mostly with a decent caramel presence, mild hop bitterness for balance, finishes quickly and fairly dry. Medium body, watery texture, light carbonation. About as middle of the road as you can get for craft beer, modestly malty ale with an unassuming flavor profile, at least its low abv lends to easy drinking. BOLTZ7555 (1121), Phoenix, Arizona, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 20, 2009 Probably the most disappointing of the Bell’s offerings. Just nothing exciting about this one. Garnet colored pour with a small eggshell head that diminishes quickly. Aroma is caramel malt, citrus, and freshly cut grass. Flavor is quite sweet and a bit cloying...medium mouthfeel. ders0 (19), , Minnesota, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 19, 2009 Not bad, but kind of boring. This style isn’t too wild in general, but I’m kind of pissed off I spent so much money on this six pack. Could be much worse though as it is certainly drinkable and quite good, but nothing I would buy on a regular basis and nothing that overly impressed me. monkeychugg55 (242), Joliet, Illinois, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 14, 2009 Batch 8940 Apparently this was bottled on January 27th. Pours a hazy amber with a small but constant white head. The aroma consists mostly of cereal and pils malts. A little bit of grassy hops are present, but have probably long since faded. The flavor is just as malty, a little on the sweet side, and doesn’t boast much in the way of hops or bitterness. Very enjoyable however, will definitely have to re-rate. blklab2007 (982), Connecticut, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 8, 2009 bottle poured a light amber in color with a thin layer of white foam. aroma has malts, sweetness, and some light hops. mouth feel is light and the carbonation on the low side. flavor has a malted base, nuts, light sweetness, and some very dull hops. as the glass went on the bitterness picked up a tad and some minerals lie underneath it. this is the first bells beer not to give me some excitement.
