| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Feb 17, 2008 Bottle. Copper with a beige head. Sweet, malty aroma with a chemical touch to it. Almost like an unwashed, new plastic toy. Must be the spiciness, that just comes off wrong to me. Flavour is malty with caramel notes, some fruit and a light hoppy finish. Quite bland and uninteresting unfortunately. emerson430 (87), Lakewood, Ohio, USA

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Feb 6, 2008 Pours medium dark copper, forming little to no foamy head. Aroma of malts, hops and cereals. Flavour is of a watered down brown ale, not much in character. Big disappointment from Belgium. Yeah, I know, we got more than our fair share of disappointment brews here in the US too. gmonroe10 (172), Netherlands
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 29, 2008 on tap at Café Karpershoek in Amsterdam. Lively brown, well carbonated. Malty aroma, a little of caramel malt on the taste. Not enough body- slightly watered down mouthfeel. Good though. Finn (1494), Tromsø, Norway
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 28, 2008 Bottle 0,33l. Golden brown colored. A rapidly disappearing head. Sweet malty aroma. Malty flavor with hints of almond and fruit. Hardly any bitterness. Well balanced. DenverLogan (421), MileHi, Colorado, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 18, 2008 Amber color; small lingering head. Smells of Cheerios and ambe malt. Moderately light body, but smooth and easy. Slight caramel malt and bread, and vey light spice and orange zest; rather light overall. I seem to remember this as a bigger, richer beer in the early 1980s, but it’s not bad as a 5% abv brew.
