| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 17, 2008 Pours deep amber with a large tan head that quickly diminishes and has almost no lacing. Nose is faint caramel, dust, allspice, white pepper, alcohol. Very slight caramel malt flavor, mixed with banana phenols, segues into a dry, peppery finish. There are complex sour notes. Faint smoky flavor in the finish. Rather watery mouthfeel. All of the flavors are very understated. Everything improves as it warms. I did not enjoy my first taste of this, but it grows on you. soyorganic (217), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 16, 2008 Bottle: Nice looking beer dark brown color wtih an off white head that retains. Initial taste is very smooth with low carbonation. Second taste almost tastes like aluminum would (maybe the glass). Then it is followed by a wonderful savory banana carmelish aftertaste.
