| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 19, 2006 Poured a lightly hazy, auburn color with a medium sized, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of dried fruits, caramel malts, toffee, and some nuts. Taste was very malty; caramel malts, toasted dough, nutty, with brown sugar, light citrus fruits, and a low bitterness as well. gunnfryd (3632), Kristiansand, Norway

| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Apr 30, 2007 (Sampled draught at Cafe Kabörk, Köpenhamn, Denmark) Nice red color, white to tag head. Acidic scent, rather acidic to sour taste. Not really my style, and wouldn’t call it a Vienna for sure. Spritzy mouthfeel, low bitterness. ClarkVV (3578), Allston, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 11, 2005 2004 bottle. Pours a caramel/amber body, with a light transluscence from the small amount of sediment in it. But a little weak and transparent after it settles. Rapidly disipating, light beige head. Aroma is lightly spicy, with some nut-brown characteristics (dry walnut-like flavors, with brown sugar and a bit of cola). Flavor is full of light toasted grains, sweet caramel and brassy hops bitterness. Ends with a good balance of sweet/bitter and gets a good lager yeast punch in. Terrifically quenching vienna here, as quenching as their pilsener with a little more oomph to it. I’m surprised to see the parity between the two, though I guess the fresh, spicy/herbal hops in the pils get a lot of high marks. No alcohol, no thinning, maybe a touch of metallic flavors or something dirty, but it’s faint. Body is medium, no chewiness. CapFlu (3494), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada
