| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 20, 2004 Pours a light copper body beneath a serious and tenacious head that laces all the way down the glass. Nose is full of hops, with a spicy undercurrent. Strong piney hop flavor, and swirls of sweet malt. Medium-heavy bodied, easy drinking but assertive. Warming and pleasant, a great winter brew. mkobes (2104), paramus, New Jersey, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 7, 2004 Bottle. ORange and clear with a big white head. Nice floral hop aroma. mellow hop flavors and bitterness, with a smooth and unassertive malt flavor. Easy to drink but nothing unusual. jefcon (1000), Arlington, Virginia, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 6, 2004 Amber and orange with a fine rocky off-white head and considerable lacing. Aromas are woodsy -- pine and some hazelnut, as well as a slight scent of yeast and the citrus of hops. A big beer at first taste, it settles into something more drinkable with notes of pine cone, apricot, and horse blanket. Appreciable alcohol with a heavy hand on the hops. The yeast and malts are out of balance though, with a short sour-bitter finish.
