| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Aug 27, 2007 The aroma is both hoppy and malty but lacks any complexity. The only other element is alcohol. The appearance is deep gold with a small head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin. Overall it’s drinkable but not a good beer.

| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Aug 24, 2007 Pours thick and golden, though somewhat transparent. Like dirty glass. Aroma of boozy lemonade with bitter orange skin and weeds. There are some attractive hoppy moments here and there, throughout. A very syrupy green tea flavor, so much so that it’s a struggle to swallow. Compost and some very old apple juice in the middle. Alcohol is belligerent. With a little time this induces a brazen chilled tequila character, which isn’t really good or bad, but just unlikeable. Finishes with a lick of wet hay, then a coating of unrefined sugars. Palate is long and thick, which isn’t fitting for these flavors. I can’t dig it. Thanks anyway, Steve. TURDFERGUSON (1607), Carrboro, North Carolina, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 22, 2007 Updated: Sep 20, 2007Bottle from tj’s. Pours a hazy straw-colored orange with a small white head that sticks. Aroma is fruity and slightly piney--a lot of hops up front. Flavors noticed include banana, more tropical fruits, citrus, some kind of spices. Rich, medium body. Hardly any alcohol noticed. Better than expected. pantani (1902), Salinas, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 19, 2007 Bottle from Irishboy. Amber with no head. Aroma is caramel, light hops, light alcohol. Taste has caramel, light alchol, sweet. Interesting beer I guess. yesyouam (609), Fairport, New York, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Aug 10, 2007 Small Craft Warning is a hazy golden lager with a somewhat diminishing, soft and splotchy, white head. The aroma is strong in the hops department. It is piney, wooden and fruity... like orange. It’s strong but soft. It is medium bodied, very smooth and has a clean finish. It has a very full taste from the grain up to the hops. The bitterness is well-managed. The flavor becomes slightly sweet as the flavor progresses. Excellent flavor. It’s so bright and brassy! Yes! sliffy (2012), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 9, 2007 Bottle: pours a clear gold with a white head. Aroma, citrus, yeasty, herbal notes, and some bready malts. Flavor, citrus, bready notes, yeasty, pale malts, some bitterness on the finish. Pretty nice. decaturstevo (2010), decatur, Tennessee, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 5, 2007 A deep golden pour with a light white head and lace. An aroma that is on the sweet malt side. A flavor that is sweet and rich. A very subtle hop bitter but just about right for the style. A bit on the warm side which is the way a beer should be. A smooth rich even palate that has good carbonation as well. A very good offering for the style a beer I’ve had many times and just realized I had not rated it.
