Smells of sweet malt, some vegetal hints. Tastes of earth, tea, some caramel, spice, peppery. As the beer warms, it tastes more like iced tea than beer.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 25, 2009 This one came in my beer club. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured an orange-caramel color with a medium sized orange-cream head. The aroma was faintly malty, lightly fruity and a touch yeasty. The flavor was dry, bitter and nutty with moderate fruity and floral hops and a touch of caramel. The finish was short, tangy and fruity. Medium body. Ok. travita (1920), Frisco, Texas, USA

Aroma of malt, faint honey, light fruit. Flavor is kinda watered down, some malt and honey with some light fruit. Mouth feel is watery, medium body, medium carbonation.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Nov 6, 2009 Beer of the month. Had a nice copper body with a white head that had some retention. Aroma had a nice malt note to it. Some sweet notes and some almost biscuity notes. Flavor was similar but did have a delicate hope bite at the end. A little thin on the palate, but carbonation was minimal. A nice session ale, but not out of this world.
