| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jun 6, 2004 A lot of apple, orange, honey, and wheat flavor. Bright, accentuating, combo of hops and carbonation. Perfect amount of sweetness. Peach esters noted after beer warmed. Plenty of malt fullness, round mouthfeel. One of the best maibocks I’ve ever had. PhillyBeer2112 (2089), Orange Park, Florida, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 2, 2000 Dark golden brown. Floral aroma. Modestly hopped with little malt presence, giving
it a dry, medium-bodied mouthfeel. Its dryness was almost reminiscient of a dry red wine, although its not ’winey’ like the powerful beers of the world. Still, at the bottom of the glass I detected hints of grape at the front of the tongue - giving it more complexity than I at first thought - and after finishing it, I had the same buzz and aftertaste that I usually have after drinking a very dry cabernet.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 11, 2007 As the other review mentioned, I thought this was a nice "mellow" beer. Light brown color with a little head. I’d like to have this one again. Very smooth going down...just like most of the other Iron Hill brews. Nice balance of sweetness and hops egajdzis (3631), Spring Mount, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 31, 2004 Poured a gold color with a very little white head. Toasty, doughy, sweet and malty aroma. Taste was bready, caramel malts, and a slight alcohol bite. adrian910ss (1434), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 10, 2008 On draft at the NW location. Pours a semi clear golden copper with a medium white head. Aroma of candied sugar malts and fruit. Taste of candied sugar and malt. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 3, 2004 Draft at North Wales. Pours deep gold with copper menisci. Aroma of malt, hops, fruit, some wheat and honey. Tastes malty, fruity, with a firm honey burst upon esophagination. Well balanced, nice complexity, and a great beer. Finished 3rd in my growler selections. Murphy (1759), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 1, 2004 Lemon, bready aroma. Nice taste of bread, mossiness. Touches of bitterness. Diverse taste. Dickinsonbeer (3496), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 9, 2007 On tap at North Wales. Pours a bit on the light side of the style- deep gold, mostly clear- some hazy and a moslty white fluffy head. Aroma is a bit light- some sweet and nutty malts, lightly toasted wheat bread, and hints of floral and herbal hops. Flavor is again a bit light for the style, but had some nice doughy character, light toast malts, some bread, and light on the hops. Cool solid smooth mouthfeel and goes down easy. Nice spring/summer lager.
