| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 19, 2009 Bottle. It’s somewhat dark amber colored, with a nice head. Aroma is very caramely and fruity with some light hint of berries. Flavour is caramely and quite sweet with a light bitterness. Quite fruity, but a bit too sweet. Light to mediumbodied. Okay, but nothing special.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Dec 24, 2009 Clear Filtered body, amber, thin white head, mild lace, aroma is toffee malts, rye spice and mild hop spice, flavor is big and bold, heavy handed bitter addition backs up the rye spice for a huge flavor punch, refreshing. Bold roast, much roastier than others in this style, almost an american brown ale in terms of flavor. I’m really enjoying this ale, best I’ve had from Flying Dog Maverick34 (716), New York, USA

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Dec 13, 2009 12OZ bottle, bought @de bierkoning in Amsterdam. Deep reddish copper with a medium beige head. Fruity and nutty malt aroma, with a belgian caramelly touch, and hints of cherries, along with earthy and herbal hops. Still a bit one-dimensional. Medium bodied and smooth. A bit sweet with a moderate bitterness in the finish. Not the best flying dog.
