Orange amber color with a tan bubbly head of moderate duration. Flavor is flowery and sweet at first and then moves toward bitterness. Honey and spice flavors with a tea like quality. Lightly creamy in the mouth perhaps a bit thin with a lightly dry finish. Moderate carbonation. Notably good on the aroma and flavor. chimplechamp (465), Oslo, Norway

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 24, 2007 500ml bottle (Cambridge Wine, Cambridge)
Bold orange, thin head. Spicy aroma. Also a spicy taste, like Abbeye de Rocs - very malty. Almost sage-like stuffing taste. Maybe a little sweet, but thoroughly tasty. illidurit (895), Santa Cruz, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 17, 2008 500 mL bottle poured into a mug. Slightly hazed goldenrod color with a very weak off-white head. Even with vigor this beer produces hardly any foam, and what little is there collapses within a minute.
Aroma strikes of rosemary and doughy malt. Reminds me precisely of rosemary sourdough bread dipped in olive oil.
Lightly malty with a honey sweetness and a dose of semi-bitter rosemary. Well-balanced.
Carbonation is moderate, body is medium-thin, finish is bone dry and short.
Quite drinkable but lacks complexity and doesn’t keep my interest very long. DandyWolfFloyd (331), Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Aug 11, 2008 Aroma is sweet matls, with scant detectable hops, sweet fruits, suggesting berries, and figs. It’s color is a golden translucent color, akin to a cider, with a thin white collar. It’s flavor is a light sweet fruit and malt, with berries. The palate is like a champagne, light dry, w/ moderate effervescence. l1br4r14n (286), Washington, Washington DC, USA

Pours cloudy dark yellow with a head that completely disappears. Flavor is spice, a little citrus, grassy bitterness, honey, all over a malt backbone. Interesting beer. beerinmarch (2829), Washington, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 6, 2007 Nose of alcohol, slight scotch note from the herbs and earthiness of it. Sweet up front with a good balance to it, very spicy and dry. Pours cloudy amber with a tall white head.
