A sourish tate, sort of cherry like. A dry finish. Not sure how a hemp beer is supposed to taste, but this wasnt bad. walleye (881), Sterling Heights, Michigan, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 19, 2004 Sampled this beer at the Great Taste of the Midwest in Madison WI. I was intrigued by the hemp ales this year (and there were quite a few). However, most were not all that tasty, including this one. Would rather have a wheat anyday.

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 10, 2004 2004 draught. Auburn with some dark yellows, quite clear, little head. Aroma has earthy, soily hops in it, a touch of roast maybe, but it’s quite faint. Flavor begins with a small dose of chocolate sweetness, then comes the nuttiness, big and chewy and finally it ends on an astringently bitter note. Don’t see the complexities they talk about really. It’s a hard style to make, but they just need more malt in this one. This thing is dry, almost burnt tasting at times and horribly watery. 11026 (1779), Alabama, USA
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | May 29, 2004 Rated purely on taste. This is the first hemp ale I have tried. Poured a brown color, moderate head. Aroma was of malt and funky nut. Taste was also very different, I just need to try another of this style to be fair.
