| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 3, 2009 Pours a very nice mahogany color with a very small head that does not last. Taste is crisp with notes of caramel, citrus hops, and maybe a little peat. Alcohol is noticeable in the aroma, but not so much in the flavor. Lively carbonation at first, but that eventually subsides. Full body without being sticky or syrupy. Good beer and drinkable. grandet (478), Scranton, Pennsylvania, USA
