| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 24, 2005 Dark golden beer with a nice medium head. Malt aroma with herbs, obviously mostly heather. Weak flavour with a little earth and some bitterness at the end.
OK, but not spectacular. Ernest (4487), Boulder, Colorado, USA

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jul 29, 2001 Many ’unique’ beers are just interesting, and not really all that drinkable on a regular basis -- Sam Adams Triple Bock comes to mind. This is an exception. The flowery aroma and amber hue invite one into a deliciously complex but delicate series of flavors -- earth, grass, citrus and mint all seemed to be there to me. Great smooth finish, a wonder on a hot lazy day. Definitely one of my new favorites, and a great bottle to boot. HenrikSoegaard (4342), Randers, Denmark
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Feb 18, 2006 Bottle. Frothy white fair mostly deminishing head. Light amber colour. Heavy malty aroma. Nice flavor, but a little watery. tiggmtl (4311), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 12, 2005 Mild, pleasant, floral hop aroma with underlying sweetness. Opaque amber-tan with decent, large-bubbled, white head that recedes to cover with some patchy lacing. Floral spiciness with decent sweet malt character. Medium body and smooth in texture with gentle but engaging carbonation. Flavour becomes vastly more expressive as it warms. Bottle (LCBO - Nov. 2004). heemer77 (4304), Savannah, Missouri, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 2, 2004 Bottle. Pours a deep, bright gold with no head. The aroma hit syou with apple pie and flowers. Very sweet to smell. The taste is a slight peach. The flavor changes later in the beer to an orange sherbert like finish. Has a medium mouthfeel. Very satisfying. bhensonb (4274), Woodland, California, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 10, 2007 Floral aroma backed by malt. Hazy amber gold color with a minimal white head. Starts sweet with an evergreen or herbal primacy. A bit spicy, and the heather seems to balance out the malt. It even has a fairly dry finish, and something that is almost next to bitter. Interesting stuff. BBB63 (4230), La Porte, Indiana, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 24, 2003 Hazy golden hue with an okay head and good lacing. Floral aroma of hay fields, herbs, lemongrass, elderberry, grapes, and earthy yeast. Unique tastes of pineapple, herbs, aromatic hops and earthy heather and hay. Some sweet white wine qualities. Dry and clean finish. Thin to medium-bodied with a crewy and soft mouthfeel. Different for sure! For a slighty heavy ale it is quite refreshing. I'll have to get more of this.
