Jan 14, 2006 Pours a clear medium orange gold with a miniscule amount of white head. Aroma is extremely sweet of caramel and butterscotch. Flavor is sweet, but then a bitter dry finish. Overall, very very lousy beer for the price.

Mar 3, 2005 Bottled. Opaque, orange/ brown in color with a big, frothy tan head. Yeasty aroma with spicy notes and something that resembles coriander. Spicy and carbonated with generous malt sweetness. Not much in the way of hops.

Nov 5, 2004 330ml brown bottle.Aromas of fruit(pear, lemon), honey and iron. Clear amber, off white head is long lasting and solid. Malt and caramel start, fruity-hoppy middle and bitter hop finish. Seems a bit too carbonated, but enjoyable nonetheless.

Jun 9, 2008 Golden brown in color with a thin head. Not the greatest-looking beer in the glass. Aromas just like dulce de leche. Lots of caramel on the nose and the palate. Slightly sweet throughout. Plenty of caramel on the finish. Creamy for an amber ale, with gentle carbonation and delicate mixtures of flavors. Not altogether bad, but definitely outside the box. Points for inventiveness -- it works.

Oct 27, 2006 Pours an unassuming clear amber with a big fluffy white head, dwindling to a handful of big bubbles and thin white film. The nose is really sweet, too sweet. A cloying sticky (stinky?) caramel predominates. Almost stomach turning in terms of sheer sweetness. The palate is fairly decent. While the body isn’t very heavy, the carbonation is just lively enough to imbue this not watery brew with some volume. The flavor is a step up from the aroma. The caramel sweet cloying stickiness is still there, but not so extreme and there is a bit of "Belgianness" and even some Saaz-like hops to balance the flavor. Beyond the sweetness there lies an allmost peppery element, particularly in the aftertaste. Of course, the sweetness lingers far too much as well.

Feb 5, 2008 Bottle. Nutty aroma. Excellent appearance, decent frothy head with a good carbonation level. Amber in colour. Leaves a cracking lacing around the glass as it goes down. Honey bitter but not sweet just has a clean nuttiness , easy to drink. nothing amazingly special but a great solid ale. Happy to drink this.
