| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 14, 2005 Updated: Jun 28, 2006After having the blond, and being horribly disappointed in it I was not sure what to think of this one. Sampled from a rather nice 11.2 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark caramel color with a medium sized tan head. The beer is very heavily carbonated. The aroma is fairly faint but has light elements of ripe fruit and molasses. The flavor is bitter with a hint of molasses and ripe fruit and a moderate brown sugar element. The finish is tangy. The overall flavor is pleasant but rather subdued. This is not a particularly remarkable beer. But at least it was not crap like the blond. radiomgb (1982), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 18, 2005 Deep shiny red with an orange core. Nose spicy and fruity, lots of orange and sugars. Nice taste, punchy and fruity, orange, pineapple, and other citrus give a nice brightness. Somewhat spicy. Bit bready, more sweetness, not traditional Vienna caramel, but still quite pleasing. A mite oversweet, but good stuff. ABUSEDGOAT (1934), California, USA

Aroma is grassy hops with notes of caramel and some darker fruits. Soft mouthfeel, very well balanced and enjoyable. May not have big flavors, but everything here is put together really well. altonbrownd (1913), Amsterdam, Netherlands
