| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Sep 27, 2007 75cL Bottle, consumed 9/27/07. Slightly hazy amber, very nice rocky white foam, less than spectacular retention, very nice lacing. Aroma is a little bit of pear, with some musty yeast and hop notes. Flavor is bone dry, not in good way, over the top bitterness and not very much in the malt category at all. Borders on Saison Dupont in bitterness without all the complexity of said beer. Finish is long lasting bitterness and not much else. Was really looking forward to this, I feel let down.
