| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jun 12, 2008 Bottle. Clear, dark wood in color. Faint aroma of spices, yeast, and orange. Flavors blend bread, lemon, and a bit of Belgian-style spices. Maybe a bit of grape. Not overwhelming, not bad. Very drinkable. goldtwins (4084), Nesconset, New York, USA

Notes of yeast, chocolate, coffee, and vanilla make up the aroma. Light wheaty flavor with chocolate notes. Dry mildly bitter finish. Light body. jcwattsrugger (5567), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 1, 2008 Bomber. Really dark ruby/brown with a small tan head. Aroma is a bit metallic, slightly gummy, but has nice peat, faint fruity esters, earth, caramel. Flavor is pretty decent. It’s predictable up front, but has many weird nuances that make an interesting mesh. Hints of cinnamon, clove, licorice, ripe fruits. The way the more metallic aspects meld with the fruity esters is a little strange. However, it ends up being drinkable. RCL (1486), Waltham, Massachusetts, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jun 1, 2008 Bottle. Rather metallic aroma. Behind the metal, some licorice and grape peel/seed. Surprisingly darker roasted flavor. Weird. I don’t love it. hophead75 (1964), Boonton, New Jersey, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 28, 2008 Thanks to Emacgee for sending this one, shared at Paul’s Hoboken gathering. Brown in color with a small off white head. Aroma: caramel, light chocolate, wheat and spices. Taste is pretty interesting with the caramel and chocolate wheat character I associate with dunkels, with the spices and light tartness in wits. It’s a bit light bodied though, watery. Still interesting and enjoyable to try, thanks Ethan. jrob21 (1275), Atlanta, Georgia, USA

This one is more dunkel than white with is grainy aroma and wheat flavors. Pours brown with red hues. Red fruit flavors like cherry. Sort of flat and thin unfortunately. biznizness (952), Mooresville, North Carolina, USA
