| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Nov 12, 2005 Clear amber body, minimal fizzy white head that fades to nothing. Champagne-like bubbles coming up in my pint glass. Light hop and caramel grain aroma. Taste is sweet and slightly stale grainy malt with a light flowery hop background. A little fizzy on the tongue. Not too bad, but not too complex. Ughsmash (4025), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA

Faint floral hops and some sweetness in the aroma.. quite pleasant. Flavor was much like the aroma, with a little more of a malt backbone than I had anticipated. Smooth across the palate, with some nice hop bite on the finish. This was nice and refreshing. Tmoney99 (4739), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
