Jan 20, 2006 (bottle - 16.9 oz) Orange pour with a very thin and fading tan head. Malty aroma with some caramel and some apples. Some hints of vegetables in the front with a nice malty flavor and a fizzy and pleasant apple finish. Not much bitterness in it. Very spicy on the tongue.

Jan 20, 2006 A coppery body held a light haze but virtually no head after a short, tan cap. Not knowing the style, my first comment was, "...smells like an English Bitter." A malted nose is dry caramel & light nuts over alcohol. Flavor "pops" with an interesting nuttiness enhanced by a prickly mouthfeel. Sweetness rears late with honey, but the overall impression is that of a Bitter, as first mentioned. And a very good one at that.

Jan 2, 2006 Bottle. Reddish brown coloured with a slim off-white head. Faint fruity and malty aroma. Unusual taste; apples, malt and caramel. Thin bodied. Not one I’ll be trying again.

Dec 6, 2005 16.9-oz. bottle. Pours hazy bronze with a small off-white head that mostly stays througout, with thick creamy lacing. Oak and apple, wine fruity hop and light caramel light malt aroma, most pleasant and inviting. Oak and yeasty apple, grape wine-like flavor, smooth and light malt. Medium and creamy smooth, slightly fizzy, clean palate.

Nov 16, 2005 This bottled brew poured a large sized head of foamy off-white colored fine to medium sized long lasting bubbles that left behind a fair lacing and a transparent brown colored body with hazy yeast swirls that looked simply scrumptious. The aroma was also nice with good caramel malt notes. The mouth feel was tingly carbonated and thin initially with a hoppy aftertaste. The flavor was mild with malt and caramel malty notes. To bad it looked an smelled better that it tasted.

Oct 31, 2005 Bottle. I agree with TheBeerCollector that this is not a beer I would go out of my way to buy. I did not get any apple aroma or apple taste as the description says. Poured a medium sized ivory head that was mostly lasting, fine-small sized bubbles, sparse lacing, transparent, carbonated, and a copper hue. Malty, hoppy and sweet nose. Apples? What apples? Sweet, tingly sparkling taste. Again. Apples? What apples? Whatever. Tingly, dry palate. Light-medium body.
