| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Nov 11, 2009 12oz bottle. Poured a copper color with a decent sized lacey head. Aroma is malty, slightly toasted caramel, and a bit of vanilla. Big flavors of sweet malt, honey and vanilla, that give way to citrus hops through the finish.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 23, 2009 Citric hop hit, dry, fairly quenching, good attributes for a Summer. A bit sweet up front, lacks a little balance but finishes well. Decent. smcolw (344), Wayland, Massachusetts, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Sep 10, 2009 Pours bubbly gold color; crystal clear. Impressive head (full three fingers). It leaves surprisingly little lace.
Clean and crisp smell but very mild. Very much a malty (but light) aroma.
The flavor is similar to an American amber ale--more malty than hoppy, which shows up long after the swallow. Very good body for the style.
This is an uncomplicated beer, but it is very easy to drink. asheft (1398), Marburg, Germany

Fruity, yeasty, bready caramel with a little cream and banana. Dark amber and clear under a lasting, off-white, lacy flannel blanket. Slightly lemony caramel flavour with some sweet, creamy malt, well balanced by medium bitterness. Notes of apricot and currant. Very slight ethanol note too. Medium body, medium carbonation, almost clean finish. blipp (1664), Newark, New Jersey, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 18, 2009 Bottle. Pours amber orange with an off white head. Sweet caramel malt aroma with a hoppy hint. The flavor is well balanced with sweet malt and floral/herbal hops. Decent. cking (1023), North Canton, Ohio, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Aug 15, 2009 Gold body with a copper tint, lasting but thin white head and a few spots of lacing. Doesn’t dress to impress. Straw and peppery aroma, mild and lightly malty. Hearty body, thicker than I was anticipating. A very nice bitter bite snaps back at the palate. Flavor consists of straw with dry, pale malts. A light nuttiness followed by a neutral hop bitterness. Fairly bitter for the style. Noble English influences are evident. Not a big fan at first but the last few bottles have grown on me. williamherbert (466), Syracuse, New York, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 3, 2009 Clear orange, pure white head (about 3-4 minutes); looks average at best. The smell is lagerish malt with a hint of citrus and lemon. Malty flavor base. Hops are light and lemony. Tastes like a wit somewhat. Lemon, lime, orange zest. Fizzy, buttery smooth feel. A decent summery brew. Light and fruity. Lager and mild citrus.. Good for non-beer drinkers. Holdwine (908), Beertimore, Maryland, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 18, 2009 Cute bottle. Nice crisp ale. Very easy to drink. Nose offers a slight spiciness to a wet hay malt. A little bitterness at the end keeps it honest.
