| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Oct 21, 2009 bottle: Tried as Brooklyn Pennant ale 55. Not a bad brew but tasted in a session with Brooklyn Oktoberfest, and I much prefer that one. Arouma is grainy with yeast, biscuits and grassy (a bit pale laggery, if you ask me). Finishes bitter with some spice. travita (1910), Frisco, Texas, USA

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Oct 14, 2009 From dmac via trade. The pour was amber and clear with a white head and plenty of carbonation. The aroma was malty and and was lightly spicy. The flavor had some sweet caramel to go along with the rich malts and a weird but distinct strawberry flavor. Unfortunate metallic taste crept in. The mouthfeel was thin and the carbonation was a bit much. doubleo (1104), San Diego, California, USA

Smells nutty and slightly sweet. Tastes about the same. Sweet and nutty. Thin body, good carbonation. KyotoLefty (1416), Kyoto, Japan

Nice amber color. Un-hopped caramel aroma with tobacco. Malty, caramel flavor, rather sweet, with low hopping. A bit of a dud-not enough hops. Disappointing from them.

| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Sep 29, 2009 Bottle at Flying Saucer. Pours a boring amber with little head. Aroma is malty melon, leaf, and a slight pumpkin. Flavor is bitter malted leaf and autumn wet grass. Watery mouthfeel. Boring, lifeless, and forgettable. Hopefully this team was eliminated in the first round.
