Apr 30, 2004 Solid gold, weak white head. Get a lot of malt pleasantness initially light fruit, but it turns to plain sweet in the end. Body and mouth feel are respectable. Next time I’d leave it on the shelf.

Apr 26, 2004 Sweet, corainder, spice, yeast, alcohol, pepper nose. Golden hue. Small white head. Pear, grain, strong carbonation, toffee, pleasant body and mouthfeel. Finishes with an alcoholic blast. Not too much complexity here, I was a bit disappointed.

Apr 1, 2004 I'm a little surprised at the low scores here. I was surprised by this beer. Dark gold body is topped by a milky white head that lasts as a thin sheet until the end and laces nicely. The aroma is strong, phenolic and esters dominate. The flavor is supported by a dry, pilsner-like malt and the finish is a little more bitter than I expected, but not enough to unbalance the beer. Tasty.

Mar 11, 2004 Hmm... seem to have written this one down on my bar world tour passport. Golden color with a slight head. Malty aroma and taste, with some slight leather and rough aftertastes. Moderate esters in the aroma, almost fruity- cherries etc. Aftertaste is pretty good.

Mar 8, 2004 Chicago Real Ale Fest keg #13 tapped a small head of fine to medium sized white colored mostly diminishing bubbles. The body was a transparent uncarbonated yellow orange color and the aroma was more like a pale ale. The mouth feel was smooth malty and hoppy. It had a mild hop mildly vinuous flavor. This was a very drinkable brew but not the best of show.

Mar 7, 2004 Chicago RAF. This beer had a small sized off-white head with fine-medium sized bubbles that were mostly lasting. The body was transparent and uncarbonated with a yellow-gold hue. The nose was heavily hoppy, sweet and some spiciness. The flavor was sweet, lightly bitter, hoppy, and some clove and spicy flavors. The mouthfeel was tingly and hoppy. This beer's lacing was very sparse.

Feb 16, 2004 A hazy golden color with a spicy sweet aroma. The alcohol is very present and made itself known when I finished the bottle. A flowery, fruity flavor with a crisp finish.

Feb 8, 2004 Honey and muscadine, sweet mellow spices, this reminds me almost of a dessert wine. Better when near room temp. Had at RB Philly gathering February 2004.
