The aroma is bready with strong caramel overtones. This is not a shy beer, its alcohol being apparent in the taste. Mouthfeel is slightly thick with a strong, but not cloying, sweetness coating the tongue weel into the aftertaste. A bit of apple finds its way into the tail end of the swallow. A nice example of the style. LilBeerDoctor (1547), East Setauket, New York, USA

Sweet aroma with a bit of honey and some fruit. Complex flavors make this an interesting brew. I am not familiar with maibacks, but I definitely enjoyed this one. It is pretty hoppy but still sweet, plus the 8% alcohol was a nice addition. CaptainCougar (5544), Rockville, Maryland, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 5, 2008 @ fb. A golden amber pour with an off white gooey lace. Rich malt aroma with hints of abv. Hops, malt, and abv all come through. A very pleasant bitter and hints of dried fruit as well. Just a bit over aggressive on carbonation for me. Very nice beer. The pleasant abv warmth was a plus. jobyone (234), Charlotte, USA
