Apr 29, 2005 Bottle. Legends newest seasonal. Clear copper body with a tall foamy manilla colored head. Nose is malty and semi-sweet with big fruit notes, light caramel, yeast and a hint of alcohol. Taste is spicy and malty. Big spices intermingling with creamy malts, ripe fruit, light caramel, and hops. Little more spicy and hopy than expected, but this turns out better than the Doppelbock. Body is full and with a moderate carbonation feel. Dry is spots with lingering light spicy hop bitterness. Finishes with more spicy hops, light yeast, dried fruit, light nuttiness, caramel and creamy malts. Nice beer!

May 5, 2006 Great reddish-brown body with a quickly diminishing tan head. A very light aroma, sweet, malty, very nice. Subtle flavor, grassy accents, earthy malts as well, very well done. Clean ending, one of Legend’s better seasonals.

May 15, 2005 Copper colored with a tannish head. Aroma of spicy and earthy hops, lightly malty. Big spicy/grassy/earthy hops with a nice malt backbone - very much like bread dough. Nice beer, but not my favorite Legend Seasonal.

May 18, 2006 Sweet malt up front then hops in the back. A descent offering from legend, cant complain, but most of what i have had from them is better.

Sep 12, 2009 Served on draft at the brewery. Pours a clear amber color with a large creamy head. Good head retention and lacing. Nutty aroma with very lightly toasted malts/ Some stone fruits and caramel as well. Fairly dry. Taste is caramel, apple, apricot and a grainy finish. Leafy hops as well with a very, very faint hint of chocolate. Medium bodied. Good beer.

Jun 2, 2006 Poured a clear glowing dark amber color with a thin beige head. The malty aroma was sweet and sugary. Fruity and yeasty notes. Light alcohol present. Malty flavor was bitter and spiced at the end. Dry finish.

May 3, 2006 Copper color, high carbonation. Nice, subtle aroma. Not much of a flavor at first but after a few seconds there is a sweet hoppy flavor. Nice, but doesn’t last long.

Feb 2, 2007 Bottle sampled in May 2006 thanks to Numenor: Clear copper amber with a thin-lacing light tan head. Aroma of semi-sweet Vienna and Munich malts, lightly toasted with earthy bittering noble hops and German lager yeast. Starts with a nice, lightly sweet German maltiness with some good noble hoppy balance. Fairly true to style, but could use a touch more sweetness.
