| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 28, 2008 Thought at first I was getting a skunked aroma, which seemed quite impossible,given that the bottle was paperwrapped,might be grainey hops, Huge bellowing rocky head. soft grainey malt and hop taste, with a soft bitter finish. Had this on tap once, tasted fresher and more bitter in the finish. Still had that skunkish impression at the end,but it wasn’t to much in the taste.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 27, 2008 Bottle. Almost clear golden colour with a huge white head. Rich malty aroma and taste with complex notes of hops, fruits and spice. Not as bitter as expected, but well balanced. nick76 (2688), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Jan 24, 2008 The aroma has a metallic hop, malt, and funky yeast. The appearance is hazy gold with a thin head. The flavor is like the aroma which is not good. The palate is thin. Overall I don’t like it. Palidor19 (1792), Brandon, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jan 24, 2008 A dry bitter beer, with some mild grassy hops. Malts are very standard. the rest seem quite a touch above average yet it is very accessible with the trained palate. jujubeast6000 (799), Houston, Texas, USA

Very big head, creamy, but not very lasting. Very hoppy aroma, alcoholy, dark fruit. Dark sugary. Bitter dry taste, full body, not watery. Kind of dirly tasting. Some maltiness. Dry & somewhat acidic. Kind of like a sweet pale ale. HenrikSoegaard (4412), Randers, Denmark
