| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 2, 2008 Draught at Pikkulintu, Helsinki. Hazy golden color with thick creamy head. Dry hops, exotic fruits and phenols in the aroma. Sweetish flavor with honey, fairly sharp phenols, grapefruity dry hops, raspberry and firm bitterness. Fairly pleasant, but phenols are too sharp. Much hoppier on draught than from bottle. Doppelganger (1353), Dry County, Arkansas, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 30, 2008 Bottle, from Noel Cuveliers, Abele, also at Dickies’ Grillhouse in Brugge. (Just Traci and me left in the place, chatting with the owner. Very cool.) Light orange pour with just a little haze, lots of glass-coating coarse white head. The aroma is just exactly the smell of a fresh-cut field of alfalfa hay. Lavender sweet flavor with a touch of herbal bitterness, dry finish with carbonation that gives the impression of creaminess. Not quite as dramatic as the XX Bitter, but a very fine, well-crafted beer. douglas88 (1601), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA

The taste is also a fairly dry, yeasty, and fruity flavor with some apricot. Not a bad beer at all. A soft palate and fairly dry. Good. Bullit (1354), Glasgow, Scotland

Thick cloudy yellow orange with a soapy white head. Smell is floral and has some hints of grass in there. A sweet lemon flavor that is slightly watery but has that nice tart bite to it in the finish. Scauca (412), Lovere, Italy
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 16, 2008 Huge white head on a hazy straw appearance. Nose hit by a weak peppery, apple, pear nose. Yeasty. Little flowery. Very dry toward a bitter end. puzzl (2619), New York, New York, USA

Spicy banana esters in the nose, warm muddy malts. A bit of pudding. Flavor is very spicy up front, mild malts in the middle, a touch boozy in the finish.
