| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 22, 2005 Very hazy dark straw color with a moderate head. Aroma is 100% phenol - banana esthers out the wazoo coupled with apricots and peaches. Yeast and malt hiding meekly in the background. Flavor is malt dominated - molassas and toffee maybe - with phenols readily apparent. Finish is dry, moderately astringent. OK. Dickinsonbeer (3497), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | May 18, 2005 Pours a hazy golden with a minimal head. Aroma is spicy malty and a wierd herbal phenolic almost medicinal aroma. Flavor is malty sweet with a good amont of pheonolics and a bit of DMS but otherwise earthy and spicy and an off aftertaste. The finish is a bit off and harsh. I didnt like this one very much. mephisto (1144), Taiwan

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 13, 2005 Mild cabbage, pastry yeast and earthy, leafy, spicy notes to the sweet, malty aroma. Opaque yellow-gold with thin but lasting light cover of white head. Mild lactic, leafy coriander to the malty flavour with some alcohol in the finish. Definite alcohol warming. Dry, medium-light body with moderate carbonation. Bottle sampled with MartinT, Olivier_MTL and Rastacouere. MartinT (5068), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 13, 2005 The Lure: Coriander leaves upon a dry soil. Earthy hops sitting in dough.
The Festivities: Wooden hop bitterness and orange-y fruitiness blend well with the leafiness and milkiness of the coriander. Flavors are somewhat dry in the end, and could be more livelier to my tastes.
Transcendence: Lunacy is in the eye of the beholder. JFURYCAT (792), East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 10, 2005 Updated: Aug 10, 2005The aroma is pretty spicy and I definately detect coriander-it gave me a flashback of Weyerbacher’s Prophecy. It smells like a cross between a belgian ale and a summer ale. I taste hints of vanilla and banana. It is very carbonated and has a dry finish/aftertaste. The aftertaste has a peppery feel. I enjoyed it in the first few sips and I enjoy all the punches it packs in the end. I think my bias here is that I love coriander and as the description notes, they pack it in.
