| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 29, 2006 From the bottle... nice thick head. LImited aroma. Pleasurable body - not too sweet (like most ales of its type) with a good wood hop balance. Good finish. boojummy (50), Medford, Massachusetts, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 4/5 | 8/20 | Apr 8, 2006 Updated: Jun 17, 2006Bottle from the package store down the street. Pours a copper color with a tan colored head that dissipates quickly. Can’t detect much in the way of aroma. Very clear but with some suspended yeast particles. Moderate bitterness with a little tannic flavor. Slightly soapy aftertaste. No hop aroma. Moderate carbonation. A drinkable beer, and fits the style, but nothing extraordinary. 2beerguys (299), North Shore, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 5, 2006 The North Woods Ale pours a dark amber/light brown color with a fizzy off-white head. Aroma is of light hops with a hint of perfume and fruit. Sean likes the sweet smell, and says it entices him to drink more. Initial taste is lightly sweet, which carries into the finish. Light body with a creamy mouthfeel. Light alcohol presence. Cletus (5059), Connecticut, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 16, 2005 Nice color, but the head disipates almost immediately. Sweet, fruity aroma and flavor of peaches, and some caramel. Enjoyable, though unspectacular. MrRomero (1934), Nolanville, Texas, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | May 20, 2005 Bottle: pours orange red with a small, shortlived tan head. Aroma of caramel, a touch of fruit, and for some reason, a little marzipan. Flavor is mostly caramel malt. Metallic. Light fruit. Bitter, metallic finish. muzzlehatch (4427), Burlington, Vermont, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | May 17, 2005 12 oz bottle. Dark, very clear copper-red, head near-white and quickly diminishing...caramel, cherry and maple and a touch of rustic hops in the warm nose...body rather sour, despite dark fruits and brown sugar character, no hop presence...rather burnt and syrupy at the finish. Hmmm, going to have to go with Ernest on this one...this sample, at least, was nowhere as good for me as the other raters found it.
