Medium red amber with a good off-white head and nice streaked lacing. Smell is spiced nutmeg and hops and is a touch floral. Flavor is decent hops but is so light and subtle. Drinkable, but just not much to it. lb4lb (2011), Austin, Texas, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 13, 2008 Pours semi opaque with a big fluffy staying beige head. Smell is fruity, hibiscus, floral and pretty nice. Taste is very fruity, floral and gummy candy like, without the strong sweetness. Still malty leaning but lightly hopped, and very floral, fruity and tea like with a little bit of alcohol, I think, coming through as it warms a bit. I actually like this much more than expected. bitbucket (2036), Kirkland, Washington, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 6, 2008 Bomber. Pours clear dark copper with a huge, fluffy and lacy off-white head. The initial aroma was citrus and fruit when I opened the bottle; but now that I’ve got my nose in the glass it’s brown sugar and fruit. Medium body, moderate carbonation. The taste is dominated by brown sugar, but there is some malt, like the inside of a malted milk ball, and a touch of earth and tea. (I’ve been told that the tea taste is bad, but i’m not buying in to that.) Finally some spice, earth; and a dash of pine and grapefruit in the finish. rbrazell (57), Tallahassee, Florida, USA

Malt based flavor profile with some spicy dryness that comes in at the finish.
