| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 24, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours a light tan, lacing head with a clear amber body. Smells of caramel and lightly roasted malts. Tastes to me like apricots and caramel. Decent palate. presario (2956), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 23, 2009 Trade with noncaloric. Thin head. Dark amber beer. Very light aroma. A strong inhale builds a doughy heaviness with a center that is still elusive. Full body. Toasty flavour. Bring on the pint glasses! BeerHawk (1175), Huntsville, Alabama, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 21, 2009 Bottled Aug week 4. Poured amber with a creamy off-white head that settles to a ring. Malty aroma with a hop background. The flavor found caramel and grass hops with just a slight hint of spice. Light body and light bitterness. smith4498 (874), Miami, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 17, 2009 Pours caramel color with off white head. Aroma of lightly toasted malts. Sweet, nutty flavor with some toasty maltiness, and mild hop bitterness. Medium body with moderate carbonation and a creamy mouthfeel. Better than expected. Butters (1646), Virginia, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 15, 2009 Pours a clear dark amber with fair thin off-white head. Fruity appley esters on the nose with a sweet toastiness and slight vinegar note. Flavor is sweet caramel malt, biscuit, and a faint citrusy hop. Not bad as an alternative fat tire.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 11, 2009 Amber pour. CaryTheDude, JakeBra, RyBra and various others told me this was awesome. I disagree. This is ok. Deep amber pour. Carmel aroma. Flavor is also carmelly. It’s ok. Not great. But, for a vienna, It’s alright. noncaloric (609), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 6, 2009 Pours a dark amber, slightly red. Full beige head with good retention and lacing. Malty aroma, slightly sweet. Flavor is sweet malts, cream soda, caramel, slightly cidery, turning dry, somewhat bread-crusty at the end, but in a good way. Somewhat thin bodied, but the play of the carbonation in the mouth is delightful.
