| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 1/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jun 12, 2007 Clove and banana, with a strong dark citrus aroma, with some spice. Apples with brown sugar, very cidery, i don’t think this beer is aging well. soury. I’ve had this beer before and know this is not what it was when i first got it! So i rated accordingly.

| 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Jun 7, 2007 Excellent! It pours a gorgeous reddish-brown, deep and clear, very inviting. Aroma is strong and malty with overtones of brown sugar or molasses, possible chocolate hint. Taste is superb - malty with some hop bitterness, a whisper of sweetness, molasses tones. Smooth but with quite a bite, it is to be sipped and savored. glkaiser (1172), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 12, 2007 Muddy reddish brown. Lots of floaties. Small bit of sour apple in the aroma. Light banana and slight sugar taste. Mild yeast aroma. Drinkable, but nothing amazing. Gurst (338), Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 7, 2007 Interesting, but a little all over the place. Nothing really shines through, but the tastes cycle through tart fruit, cookie, bread, and banana before fading down into a low buzz of alcohol. robertsreality (2460), Minnesota, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 20, 2007 Dark Red Amber Color with White Head. Caramel, Biscuit, Yeast and Fruit Notes on the Nose. Smooth, Clean Mouthfeel, Some Carbonation and Peppery Spice...Alot of Sweetened Banana and Fruits...Sour Flavor Overall. Some Caramel...Some Nice Flavors and Alcohol is Well Placed..The Flavors Don’t Come Together to Make a Smooth Ride, but Still a Winter Sour. luckygirl (1221), Boulder, Colorado, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Apr 11, 2007 750. Beer is clear, medium-brown with an average-sized, light brown, mostly and quickly diminishing head.<P>
The aroma is covered in an unpleasant, strong, metallic patina. It’s strong enough to trigger the "Ugh, do I really want to do this?" thought as the glass is on the way to my lips. Mostly fades as it settles, revealing moderate malt notes of toasted grain, caramel, biscuit; Hoppy with a light note of herbal grass, trace of resin; Yeasty with a light note of banana clove, bubblegum; Light-to-moderate miscellaneous note of aforementioned metal.<P>
The flavor is heavily sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter with a long, lightly warm, moderately sweet, trace bitter finish. A little sticky and husky in the aftertaste.<P>
The body is medium, the texture is watery-velvety and the carbonation is lively.<P>
Unclean and off-putting in the nose, not a great example of style, either. IrishBoy (2722), Bakersfield, California, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Mar 30, 2007 Bottle; Nose of bready grain with some caramel malt and crab apples giving a tart note; rust colored with a tiny beige head; flavor is tart fruit with a sour aftertaste. Not a great example of the style. bager (2121), Copenhagen N, Denmark
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 19, 2007 Bottled. Hazy dark amber coloured with a small off-white head. Kinda fruity with notes of caramel, banana, overripe fruits and a hint of citrus.
