| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 18, 2008 Bottle @ home. Pours copper with a hint of red around the edges. Head is small and off white. The aroma is sweet malts, some sweet butter, light hops and caramel. The taste is a toned down version of the aroma. There is some sweet malt notes, more of the hops are present and very little in the way of the caramel remaining. The mouth feel is light to medium with a slight bitter hop finish.

| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | May 15, 2008 Pour is very light amber/brown with a light tan head. Aroma is of malt and old gym socks. Flavor is lightly bitter with a hint of caramel finish (just like the description). This is a very bland brew so I can see how it is a best seller. Too many loser beer drinkers out there with crappy taste buds. Wouldn’t buy again. LooseCannon (936), Norfolk, Virginia, USA

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 4, 2008 Dark amber color......thick, pillowy head. Slightly sweet malt aroma. Light malt flavor in the front......slightly crisp mouthfeel. Somewhat of a bitter back, though with a very clean finish for the style. talon1117 (628), Bellvue, Colorado, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 27, 2008 Pours a mostly lasting amber color with a small, off-white, fizzy which fully diminishes and leaves no lace. Nose is is very faint with grains and some offputting vegetable with a mild bitteerness. Flavor is mildly better with some sweet grains and light caramel. palate is medorately light, lively, and watery. Finishes with a touch of dryness. Actually, despite the score, it was quite drinkable but certainly one of the less interestinf ambers. scooterbub (383), Lander, Wyoming, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 26, 2008 Bottle. Pours an amber color with a thin tan head. Tates is of smoke, caramel, malt and is a little sweet. The aroma is the same. Pretty easy to drink and isn’t bad to have when it is on sale. Not as good as what I remember. I’ll have to revist this one. obguthr (1055), Poquoson, Virginia, USA
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 1/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 6/20 | Apr 23, 2008 Aroma is salty, green onion, and mushroomy barley malt. Dingy dark gold pour with no head. Tinny and bitter, rather unpleasant. Tastes like a weak english bitter. The consolation is it might pair well with some foods. daknole (3000), Scottsdale, Arizona, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 19, 2008 Typica amber. Not bad, not great. Good balance and carbonation. I would have liked a bit more caramel/malt in the flavor, but its a decent brew.
