| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 14, 2008 Somewhat pale gold with a short white head. Sweet malty honey aroma. Medium-full body with plenty of carbonation. A brown sugar malt tone mixes with herbal hops that surface more at the end leaving a dryness on the palate. Molasses malt flavor is left faintly on the tongue after hops have slowly diminished. Miksu (2241), Jyväskylä, Finland

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 2, 2008 My version had 6,3 % ABV. The bottle looks good, but the red on the label is a bit strange. The beer in the glass is very zippy, fine creamy foam. Tastes strong and malty, spicy finish. 6,3 % ABV are well hidden. Not bad! johndoughty (2167), cheslyn hay, West Midlands, England
