| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 3, 2002 A chestnut-colored ale that goes down warmly. A slight sourness, and yet also a sweetness, and a fair amount of hops. I was expecting a little more flavor, but viewing from the other ratings, not everyone’s been impressed. This is the first brew from MacTarnahans Brewing that I wasn’t wild about. gerdy555 (163), Ohio, USA
