| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 27, 2009 Bottle from Bottle Barn. Clear golden brown with a thick foamy tan head. Really nice floral fruit and caramel aroma with some good vanilla notes and a hint of tobacco. The taste is sharp, crisp, and dry with a nice fruity tartness. Some tobacco and leather notes lingering on the back end (reminds me of my wedding night). 5000 (2409), Hardened Liver, Washington, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 22, 2009 Bottle: Batch 267,268: Dirty cola, not as dark tho, sediment abounds, large rocky sand colored head, sticky lacing. Basement, funk, dankness on the nose. A little powdery sugar pixie stix aroma as well. Hmm, had this bottle for over a year and the hop aspect has certianly died down. Very muted, however it is much more like a Bitter at this time. Seems a little stale however, but it still has this English Bitter Ale quality to it. Fairly tasty!

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 19, 2009 Bottle, 75cl. It’s a hazy, reddish golden beer, almost copper-colored, with a big, creamy, off-white head leaving lacings. Citrusy, bretty nose with malts and some general fruityness. slightly citrusy flavor with a hint of caramel, rather funky and fruity. Lasting, bretty finish with some citrus. Medium to full body, quite fizzy, but very smooth. A really nice one, but the funk is too dominant I think. (090612) Grovlam (3809), Copenhagen, Denmark
