| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 7, 2003 Some vaguely saazy hop stink to it (not skunky, but nowhere as clean and pure as the nose on the blonde) Vaguely sweet thick maltiness, some modified malt astringency. Well bittered but the finish is a bit sweet and lacking in focus. This behaves much more like a 6% alcohol lager than the sublime blonde does. Palidor19 (1773), Brandon, Florida, USA

Nice taste of caramel malts. A very worthy beer for your time dirkules (613), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Complex but more subtle flavor. Might have been nubbed by the refridgerator temperature it was served at. Headbanger (1587), Aurora, Illinois, USA

Full-bodied, malty with flavours of caramel and roasted malt. Quite spicy with a touch of alcohol and a lingering finish, into which some hops seem to be tuning in. altonbrownd (1909), Amsterdam, Netherlands
