| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 10, 2003 Small head with little retention. Nice caramel/copper color ale not far from iced tea.Very clear with good level of carbonation. Overall very pretty brew.Slight skunk smell with nothing else really showing, maybe some mild toffee way down deep. not very agressive at all. medium presence on the toungue with somewhat biting carbonation. Makes it presence known but is not the life of the party. Flavor is mildly sweet with some roast coffee flavor. Good hop balance. The malt lingers nicely. Overall, nicd beer but not a show off. Very goood, very clean but nothing special.
