Starts with orange which leads to barley sugar with an alcoholic finish. Hides alcohol wonderfully and is not over-sweet. Very drinkable but somewhat lacking in bitterness and complexity.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 27, 2008 bottle thanks to bitbucket. caramel pour with some off white head. aroma is intensly sweet malt, bubblegum like, somewhat fruity, and still a tad grainy. flavor is exactly the same with a small malt / alcohol bite. it really reminds me of the huge budweiser private reserve that i had around christmas a couple years back.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Sep 23, 2008 Bottled@EBF 2008. Brilliant deep amber color, virtually no head. The aroma has a soft, delicate sweet and nutty malt profile, lots of ripe fruits and a noticeable, but inoffensive alcohol scent. Taste is vinous, gently sweet, full malty with a plummy fruitiness. Notes of mild bittering hops, molasses and port. Chewy mouthfeel. Full-bodied. A pleasant alcohol heat in the finish. Powerful and balanced. A treat.
