| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 19, 2006 Draught, Seattle Fully hazy orange-amber; little yellowish rim. Very bready, bit sour bread-like, citrussy acidity>. Sweet taste with only a citrus flavour, no acidity here. In the background some sweetness, but without the bready character. Bit burning MF; medium bodied, bit to the "smooth" side. Bit unidimensional, not very heartlifting. Cletus (5057), Connecticut, USA
