| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jul 9, 2004 Pours a rich copper brown with a thick, puffy, light tan head. Very musky Belgian malty aroma with some stale bittering hops and a touch of tartness. Body starts with a mild caramel sweetness, turning drier and smoother toward the finish. Flavors are quite subdued, but it goes down crisp and hides its alcohol well. A decent Vienna. Bov (5478), Bienne, Switzerland
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 1, 2007 from crackedkettle.com - hazy dark red-amber colour, the foam vanishes very quickly; aroma of blueberries and raspberries; a solid carbonation supports a medium malt body; quite sweet with a light bitterness; the finish shows quite a lot of residual sweetness with more notes of red fruits duff (5475), Surrey, Greater London, England
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 6, 2002 Interesting beer i though, had a nice appearance (slightly red with a nice head), slightly sweet and sour on the tongue, bit of fruit in there aswell, but a bit syruppy and sticky at times. Pretty good though. JorisPPattyn (5181), Antwerpen, Belgium
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 2, 2004 Thin brownish head, fine-bubbled, fast gone; over hazy beer with mahogany colour. Dark malts, as well as dark candi or even molasses, which seems strange for a Vienna elaborated by a Weihenstephaner disciple. Bit grassy as well, earthy. Bread taste, reassuringly German, with quite herbal notes, as a wild herb plucked fresh. Nettles? Finishes burnt-caramelised bitterish (long). Light to medium bodied, quite carbonated MF. Good Vienna, despite nose. Worthy of Leo Brand’s principles. A style I can dig. ThomasE (5178), Copenhagen, Denmark
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 25, 2004 Copper colour, not that strong an aroma. Shortlived head and a medium body. Hildigöltur (5109), København, Denmark
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 27, 2003 Good looking reddish colour. Lots of Vienna malt in the aroma and in the flavour. It has a nice mild caramel touch as well. Good body. MartinT (5068), Montreal, Quebec, Canada

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 16, 2006 Flip-top bottle (33cl): Ruby-amber coloured, hazy, quickly vanishing off-white layer; sweetish caramelly, a bit toasted nose with a bigger touch of ripe fruit (strawberry fields forever..?); sweet flavour not witout a detectable bitterness, medium bodied; fruity-malty, slightly bitter finish. O.K., very good by dutch standards........
