Fruity, yeasty, malty aroma. Spices, candi sugar, and subtle alcohol, also. Same flavor. Complex brew. Full body, smooth and perfectly carbonated. Dry aftertaste makes me want to drink this way too fast. Roastiness also in the aftertaste as it warms. 3.7 seems low. Very tasty. adennehy (2), USA does not count | 4.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 25, 2005 God damm this Cristmas beer is good. And yes the cork is a b#$ch to get out. Alcohol yes, with a taste of apricot. Wow it tast like a dried apricot. clifford0163 (93), Maryland, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 17, 2005 750ml bottle with the most stubborn cork I’ve ever faced. Pours a cloudy orange/amber with a large beige head and tons of floaters. Fruity aroma of apricots, yeast and spices. Mildly sweet malty flavor with lots of yeast and black pepper. Very little of the fruit that was so evident in the aroma. As it warmed, it started to turn a bit sour, but not in a good way. More of a vomit kind of sour.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 13, 2005 11.2 oz. bottle. Pours a cloudy deep amber with a white, bubbly, and quickly vanishing head. Earthy, alcohol aroma . Sour and yeasty on the palate with fruity notes. Lingering malty finish with only the very faintest hint of bittering hops. Quite complex and enjoyable. bu11zeye (5621), Frisco, Texas, USA

Tons of sour fruit. Almost reminds me of Brite Crawlers™ candy. Sour tangerine, pear, and apple aroma. Very sweet beer with a nice tangy fruit flavor and plenty of malt. Absolutely delicious beer.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 6, 2005 OK, points for individuality. Props to the aroma most of all. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it did not small anything like any other beer I had ever had. Though I disagree with Brandon as I definitely think this is Trix and not Fruity Pebbles. :) But he’s right about it smacking you in the face. The flavor, however, didn’t really come through though. I got some maltiness, some yeasty flavors, very perfumed and flowers, like MAry Kay in a glass. hmmm... if I had to pick one word to describe the flavor I would say Pink. :) weird. worth it.
