| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 21, 2006 12 oz. Bottle: Murky light brown with a thick creamy head. Aromas of woody alcohol, liquor and plastic. The taste is not as strong and bitter as I was expecting. It has kind of a sweet, wood splinters, alcohol, polyester type taste. The body is about average and leaves a dry taste on your tongue calling you back for another drink. Thanks Indiana_Red! IndianaRed (1560), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 21, 2006 12oz Bottle Pours a murky light beige yellowish tan. Small creamy offwhite head that lasts and leaves sheets of lacing. Aroma is a quite sweet, fruity, apricots, carmel and soft woody overtones. Noticeably abscent is any bittering hop notes. Flavor is more upfront wood with spicy, flowery notes as well. Moderate body, very lively carbonation and a smokey quite dry trailer. Interesting and unusual for the style.
