Pours golden and does not have a very pronounced aroma. You really have to snort the beer to get anything. Flavor of honey, and SMOKED MALT! Weird. Some band aid and herbal hops in the finish, which was a little watery. This sounds worse that it was. When you need a lighter high ABV beer for summer drinking, this would be an alright candidate.

Light malty aroma, golden, with a tiny white head. Huge malt flavour at first, very bitter hops, and then a lovely butterscotch meringue, with something akin to allspice. Full bodied, tongue tingling, very well balanced. A wonderful little surprise! mds (2112), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 2, 2006 Draught. Cloudy orange-gold with a small white head. The aroma is yeasty, bready, with notes of light oranges and cereal. Medium body - lots of caramel, bread, and dusty fruit flavour that isn’t too sweet. There is a nice richness to it with a certain softness. Tasty.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 29, 2006 Tap at the brewery. Deep golden colour, thin white head. Aroma is very grainy with a light cidery note. A bit of bubble gum. Flavour is fairly strange with a grainy malt backbone and a hint of smokiness as well. Earthy/woody hoppiness. Okay, but not great.
