| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 10, 2009 Bottle: Deep brown with a ruby hue and a creamy tan head. Some soft barley roast in the aroma- somewhat clean, but does have a bit of a "lagered fruity" note- touch of butter as well. Thin, fluffy light body. The roast is there and it’s dry, but it’s lacking in texture. Later on there’s some burnt husk and a peppery noble hop bitterness. A bit thin in texture- needs refining.
