| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 17, 2008 Bottle shared by Maxxdaddy. Deep copper-amber pour, slightly hazy. Thick malt aroma- yet it is a bit oxidized. Some odd plasticy phenols with a hint of smoke. Flavor is a bit oxidized as well. It does have a touch of smoke as well as gritty cocoa- papery, with a sweet maple suggestion. Finish is mildly bitter. Seems oxidized overall, a bit off. puzzl (2635), New York, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 16, 2008 Bottle shared by MaxxDaddy. Odd, lemony, kind of gabagey aroma, a touch of cinnamon. Similar flavor, a touch spicy, a touch smoky, kind of vegetal. Not great. baggio (198), norrtälje, Sweden
