| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 12, 2008 Tap at Wilmington location. Slightly hazy ruby/brown. Fruity aroma, mostly plum and tangy cherries with brown sugar and a little toffee sweetness. A little spice in there also. Finishes sweet. This is worth a second trip. sleepylopes (314), New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 10, 2008 this beer has little aroma and is essentially a a strong brown ale without much of a profile. the beer is unbalanced and big in the alcohol department. this having been said it is still not a bad choice. eaglefan538 (2399), Wilmington, Delaware, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jan 30, 2008 Poured a full brown color, hazy, some red hues, and a nice off-white to tannish colored head. The aroma was beautiful, wonderful dark fruits (cherries, plums) blended under a bready, yeasty malt base, like a rich dubbel, finishing with some phenolic notes, a balanced spicey-sweetness in the end. Not as dry as I recall the Cannibal, but I liked it as much, regardless of what everyone else thought of the Cannibal. Excellent brew, go get a growler for the Superbowl!
