| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 25, 2005 Well carbonated, rusted red/orange in color with a dimishing off white head. Aromas were sweeter/fruity malts, caramel, apple, raisens, some drier roasted malts off set the sweetness. Flavor was caramel, raisen, banana, and dry alcohol. Thick lacing left a well designed glass. Eyedrinkale (3209), Astoria, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 25, 2005 The 750 ml bottle opens gushing a little. The color is watered down brown with a big head that settles quick though. Aroma is caramel with some roasted malts. The taste is dried fruits but not rich enough. The flavors are layered with some tobacco, raisen, banana and caramel and toffee. Mouthfeel is dry and on the heavy side.
