| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 30, 2007 Bottle. Aroma of floral and citrus hop. Very nice aroma. Sort of a golden amber color. The head went so fast I didn’t notice it. A bit thin bodied. Carbonation is moderate, with a slight bite. Not bothersome. Starts with bready malt. Backed with a slight hint of citrus sour. A bit of hot spice. Flowery hop comes up to balance things out. It’s really quite pleasant. Finish is fairly dry. Bitter it is. Wouldn’t drink it constantly, but hey, it’s a seasonal!

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 29, 2007 12 ounce bottler from a 6 pack purchased at Nugget on Covell in Davis, CA. Sweet, sugary, toffee-like nose. Lots of floral aromas present, too. Very aromatic and somewhat pleasant. Mildly hazy orange-golden body with a small, quickly dissipating off-yellowish head. Sticky, sweet, quite carbonated flavors to start. Lightly lemony-biscuity maltiness in the middle. A fair amount of spicy, peppery hoppiness to finish. Very pedestrian.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 27, 2007 Bottle. Light orange, slightly hazy color, aroma of wannabe citrus hops, straw. Taste is of honey, citrus, weak caramel malt, watery, and a crisp bitter finish. This seems more like a summer than a fall beer. blankboy (3207), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Flavour’s sweet, malty and hoppy, a little watery, with a light bitter finish. Light bodied. Decent enough and moslty on style. HogTownHarry (4007), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 18, 2007 Bottle (12oz). Shared with blankboy, his bottle via trade with ross. Sadly, best by 10-10-06 - oh well. Poured pale gold, small frothy white head. Light floral hop aroma, straw-like grain, some very mild funky UK hops hovering, trying to assert - almost more of a golden ale, a touch stale. Taste is a pleasant blend of sweet ripe apple, herbal hops and buttery malt - slightly bitter tinge to the quick finish. Very watery body, pretty flat, mildly astringent, not enough flavour profile to be crisp, but still quite clean. Decent. nolankowal (851), Columbus, Ohio, USA
