May 21, 2005 Gold color with a thin head. Is there any aroma? It’s kind of a muddled grain mixture, if anything. Eh, bready and grainy taste with a dry finish. Nothing special.

May 17, 2005 Updated: Jul 3, 2005(Bottle 50 cl) Pale amber, hazy ale without much head. Typical fruity notes from the ale-yeast, a bit of hops and nothing much more. A classical, plain Bitter. 240205

May 8, 2005 Golden honey hue. Small slightly sticky white head. Faintly sweet cereal nose, floral, leather. Mostly lacking in substantial flavor. Fruity notes, light bodied, soft mouthfeel, buttery, white bread, fairly bland. Soft subdued grapefruity hops. Nothing spectacular here.

May 3, 2005 bottle. Hmmm....Being a wizard, I think Merlin would have created a better beer. Very light golden color with little to no foamy white head, no lacing. Aroma of light rotten fruit. Tasted like what an ale made by budweiser would probably taste like...cardboardy, sour, and just not enjoyable. This is as close to a drain pour I have had in a while (even after drinking cases of natty all weekend). So all in all I found this beer to be of poor quality.

Mar 27, 2005 Poured a bright gold with lots of carbonation bubbles. A large white head. The aroma is lemons with some light bread and caramel. The taste is a smoky citrus and some tobacco. There is also some spicy cinnamon in the finish. Fairly dry. Light and refreshing, different for a bitter. I would like a little more body.

Mar 6, 2005 Cloudy orange colour with a good head and lacing. Aroma is fruity with a lightly sweet, lightly bitter full bodied flavour.

Jan 22, 2005 Weak see-through brown appearance. Bitterness grows slightly from start to finish but is overall not strong. Can’t really notice any hops - finish is actually quite bad. I needed help to make this beer disappear.

Jan 19, 2005 A very malty and slightly bready aroma. The appearance is a dark golden color with a foamy white head. The flavor is buttered popcorn with a hint of citrus. It is slightly bitter but mostly a malt fest. This one really coats your mouth. Strange fellow this Merlin.
