| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 21, 2006 12 fl. oz. bottle in a gift pack from the LCBO. App.: orangey med. amber, fluffy, sl. yellow-orange head. Aroma: lots of fruits (reminds me of the gooseberry brew), caramel and darker malts behind them. A clove-like, estery quality like Weizen. Palate: thinnish body, a bit powdery or astringent, less fruit than on the nose, a little watery with some caramel and dark malt to finish. Meh... bigrond (1055), factoryville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jan 28, 2006 very, very smooth. clear in color and almost sour in flavor definately a sour aftertaste. This is a very average beer. and for the price - it won’t be purchased by me again. pootzboy (1048), Hawgville, Ontario, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 1, 2006 Bottle:
Brilliant amber ale with a rocky-sticky 3 finger cap that laces the supreme hell out of the glass sides! Looks great...Lottsa malt!
Siganture aromas for this brewer: floral wild botanicals with a musty-woody herbaceous decernment, some clover honey-like sweetness.
Rigid primal malt spine, medium body, floral-herbal-grainy character
Up front a rush a solid coarse ground bready malts just as they begin to sweeten, a flood of herbal-botanical flavors rush in to keep them from cloying...nice herbal-musk mellon tastes devlop...finish is mellow, soft and accentuated with a nice herbacious heather-like taste that lingers as lightly bittering aftertaste with the hopping.
I’m really impressed with the ales from this brewer....consistantly malt-herbal tasting and infinitely mellow with a soft mineral mouth.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 2, 2008 Couldy golden color with no head. Thin soapy ring. Slightly sweet aroma. Fruity aftertaste with minimal spice. Refreshing. brentfeesh (1039), Gadsden, Alabama, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 31, 2008 Bottle. Caramel colored brew with no head. Honey sweet aroma with a touch of yeast. Interesting. The flavor, however, is fairly bland. With just a touch of grain flavor and yeast being the only discernable tastes. A hint of sweetness also. Wet medium mouth feel. Boring really. austone (1039), Turku; Pori, Finland
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 16, 2008 Sparkling copper, foaming soapy pale head. Slightly metallic, pizza dough-like aroma, reminds me of a martini, mild funky sourness, feels quite thin. Same funk in the flavor, along with peppery herbs, little metallic maltiness. Lingering herbal & toffeeish finish. Light bodied, average bulky palate. Sourish and light brew, but manages to be somewhat interesting. I had a small piece of flora in my bottle, so I guess that could have caused some of that funk. roder60 (1033), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Aug 18, 2005 Pours a hazy pale orange color with a small amount of foamy white head. Aroma is of mint, wet mulch, damp leaves, and a wet dog thrown in for good measure...definitely very unique. Flavor is dirt, leaves, mint, and mushrooms which i did not enjoy. overall, not a good tasting beer at all. Lowe1983 (1029), Fairborn, Ohio, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 8, 2007 Pours golden/amber color with a white head. Aroma is of heather flowers, spices, and some sweet malts. Huge floral flavor with some spices and a sweet finish. Probably the most floral flavor I’ve had on a beer. Not bad but it’s nothing I would go searching for.
