General66 (96), Streator, Illinois, USA Feb 19, 2008 12 ounce bottle. Poured a hazy amber color with a .5 finger width tan head. The aroma consisted of a lot of caramel and apricot with other sugary fruit in the barkground. The taste was about the same as the smell with a lot of caramel coming through as the beer warmed. This was a very tasty beer, but was almost too sweet for my taste.
CaryTheDude (443), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Nov 2, 2008 Crushed with Honkeybra. What matters most is how well you walk through the fire, aight? Much malt sweetness on the nose, and a awesome mouthfeel. Always impressed by doppels with a good hop presence, and that’s why I’m impressed. Very drinkable. HonkeyBra (476), Lemont, Illinois, USA Nov 1, 2008 Crushed with thedude in Galesburg, IL at Budde’s Pizza. This is alright. Amber pour. A bit sweet and some hops. Good mouthfeel, finish is a bit dry. TheDude says 13/20, and I believe him. joergen (6797), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 1, 2008 Draught at GABF 2008.
