| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 9, 2007 A better than average altbier, with a taste of smooth honey malts and citrus hops. Not complex, but good for a hot day. allfreej (375), Louisville, Kentucky, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 23, 2007 Bottled. Poured coppery brown with a light tan head. Nose is mostly malt, as is the flavor. A mildly hoppy finish with a medium body and fairly refreshing mouthfeel. A pleasant beer to drink, but not a "great" beer. beerguy101 (3971), Newark, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 17, 2007 This altbier pours a medium copper color from a 12 oz bottle. Medium sized white foamy head. Aroma is caramel malt, slightly nutty and slightly sweet. A medium to light bodied alt. Malts are caramel, toffee and semi sweet. Hops are herbal and floral. Nice balance. Good carbonation. Malty and semi-sweet. It is a touch thin and watery, but tolerable. Very easy drinker, would make a good session ale. Mouthfeel is a touch thin. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet. slang (407), Columbia, South Carolina, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | May 30, 2007 Clear-ish pale brown ale(?). Odd malt nose. Off beat, yet, complex taste of sour malt(?) or rye. Its interesting, just not enough to come back too. beer club bottle Hangover (771), Atlanta, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 25, 2007 My first altbier! Copper pour with a lasting, frothy white head. Nice nutty, malty aroma. More nuttiness in the taste with some nice bread, malt and wood. Nice carbonation. Bitter finish. I liked this one. Could have used a bit more body, but it’s still pretty good for an amber. cking (1041), North Canton, Ohio, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 11, 2007 Rated 1/24/06: Solid amber ale brewed in the old style. Pours a good looking light amber with ample head. Decent aroma of sweet malts countered by a bit or rye. Smooth and easy, very drinkable. Good flavor, a nice ale that could get you through the night.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 2, 2007 Poured a clear copper color. Large creamy head...Smelled like caramel. Taste was a bit spicy up front...Followed by caramel or toffe. With a nice mild hop finish. It took a couple sips for me to like it, but it was pretty decent and drinkable.
