| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 27, 2004 500ml bottle: poured a decent copper-gold with a smallish tight cap. moderate carbonation...aromas of spice, apples some pine. prickly mouth feel from over carbonation for the style (IMHO)...Hop pronounced.... malts take a back seat but deliver a distinct sweet biscuit taste that is not overpowered by the well balanced pine, woody hops. A smooth and mildish character in a standard for the style. MrBendo (1044), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA

Taste brings perfumy and bitter hops to the mix. Bitter finish. A lot of malt in the one, like a marzen or something, with added bitterness. Quite good. bfeldmann (1042), Wilmington, Delaware, USA
