| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jan 29, 2006 Musty, dusty, some floral notes, but they’re dry and stale, a light grainy maltiness, ending on a slightly sweet honeysuckle finish, but the dominant theme is mustiness. sunevdj (1788), Copenhagen OE, Denmark
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 23, 2006 Pours a pale yellow. Looks a lot like boring lager. Very hoppy and high maltiness. Grassy. A bit sticky. JensenTaster (1588), Denmark
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 12, 2006 (on bottle) Even from half a meters distance is the sour, acidic smell overwhelming. Even the colour is the same as what the aroma makes you hink of; urin. After a few minutes, there are hints of apple and mandarin, eve a few maltgrains It´s gassy, but has a soft mouthfeel and a candyish finish, that actually grows on me. But that sure was a bad start.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 20, 2005 RLB YEHA 05. Very unique beer in that it is brewed with german hops for an english golden ale. Also held up pretty well despite the clear bottle. Pours very clear and golden with an ok head but fades. Aroma is very herbal and lightly spicy with a slight breadiness in the end from the malt. The noble hops come through again in the flavor- slightly earthy but more of a floral earthy and not woodsy like some other english hops. I really think the tettnang is a good choice for a golden ale- it kinda brings this one closer to a kolsch. alobar (1053), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 17, 2005 Thanks to IMthe Optimator at Yeha ’05. No head. Clear yellow pilsner-like color with an aroma of malts. Tastes was a clean hop flavor with a bit of pine. Not bad. willblake (2191), Belcamp, Maryland, USA
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Dec 16, 2005 12.10.05 goofy bottle, RLB YEHA-05 Clear yellow with white foam of large, soapy bubbles. Aroma is hinting at spruce, but with touches of stale dead grass. I only wish I had a spicy poultry dish to pair this with because it just wasn’t very tasty by itself. Sweat and cucumber plus grass and cheerios. Huh, this is some odd stuff. Finishes acidic and dry. MullMan (1086), Bloomfield, New Jersey, USA
