| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 29, 2007 (bottle - 12 oz) Hazy orange color with white foam. Aroma is sweet, spicy, grassy, and a bit hoppy. Flavor starts with a bitter hop flavor, very bitter, then moves on to a relatively smooth hoppy middle and a lingering bitter finish. Aftertaste is slightly sweet, almost like jellybeans. tomthompson89 (1489), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 14, 2007 Thanks again to JoeMcphee. Fantastic aroma of spice and fruit. All sorts or jelly babies in a bottle. Mellow orange colour with a decent white head. Slightly cloudy, probably from my pour. Smooth on the palette. Rich fruit and spice with a great tangy feel. Lovely beer. beerbill (1963), Laurel, New York, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | May 14, 2007 12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy orange amber with practically no head. I also noticed some yellow-white floaters in my glass. Very, very light aroma of yeast and lemon. Flavor was also quite light with some very light citrus and yeast noted. Thin, watery mouthfeel. Really not much positive I can say about this beer. Duster72 (117), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Apr 16, 2007 Pours a very cloudy orangey amber with no head and minimal lacing. Aroma is primarily yeast with some orange and lemon lurking in the background. Taste is sour and yeasty with minimal hints of fruits. Mouthfeel is medium body and low carbonation. Not very drinkable IMO, very disappointing for a HOTD brew. holdenn (1443), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 13, 2007 12 oz bottle sampled thanks to drewbeerme. Pours a hazy murky yellow with a filmy white head. Yeast, lemon, citrus and lots of pineapple in the nose. Tangy pineapple light citrus and very tannic. This is a strange brew, I’m not getting it or enjoying it. drewbeerme (2291), Chicago, Illinois, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 12, 2007 12 oz. bottle from John’s Market Place. Pours hazy ripe apricot-amber color with a modest head despite a vigorous pour. Aroma of earthy-fruity malts, fresh ripe figs, dried peach, light brown bread, and tangy floral notes. Flavor is also rich and fruity, with tart apricot, fig and bittersweet herbs, earthy yeasts, complemented by astringent spruce notes in the finish. Medium body and understated carbonation. Definitely an enjoyable brew and interesting drinking experience.
