| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 22, 2007 Rated while drinking: Pours a deep amber color with a fluffy off-white head thats almost completely disappearing. Aroma is a bit off... there’s some sweet malts in there, but it smells like a dirty bottle all in all. Flavor makes up for it with a pretty nice balance. Not too malty, and not too sweet. As mentioned on the bottle, this would be an ideal session ale. rcweir (121), Massachusetts, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 10, 2007 Purchased in Harpoon variety case.
12 oz bottle poured with thin head and nice lacing. A trace of wet cardbord (oxidation?) under a strong, sweet, malty base. Little hop character. Good mouthfeel.
Not bad, but nothng special.

| 1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 1/5 | 3/20 | Oct 12, 2007 On tap. tap line may have been bad, tasted fishy, hard to determine real flavor other than sweet. Had again on tap and tasted like the ocean and fishy. I know its a session beer but that doesn’t mean it has to suck.
