| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 14, 2005 This looks like iced tea with a fizzy light brown head. The aroma is mainly some roasted but sweet malts with moderate spicing. Light-bodied, it tastes like the smell with the mild addition of some dried fruits, raisins, dates, etc. Not remarkable, but drinkable.
