| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Apr 20, 2008 Tap @ HUB... Poured a deep ruby with a thin white head that dissipated quickly. Aroma is sweet and tart with malt and fruit. Not a lot of hops in this beer, syrupy and a wonderful malt complexity that is bitter and sweet. Very well balanced and wine-like flavors that lend to caramel and a smooth finish. Angeloregon (2033), Portland, Oregon, USA
