| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 9, 2009 Bottle brought back from the Bay Area. Poured a slightly murky, nice caramelly orange, amber with an off white head. Aroma of pine, grapefruit, resin and chewy caramel. Slightly sweet and packing a punch. About as balanced as it could be with some chewy caramel. Citrus, grapefruit and fruit. Resin. Slightly oily mouthfeel. Not quite a 4 for me. heemer77 (4304), Savannah, Missouri, USA

A deep copper body with some bronze. A dense yellow khaki head on top. The aroma was strong grapefruit with some tropical mango. There was also bread crust. The taste was sweet grapefruit and burnt bread crust. There was also a little bit of peanuts. Awesome. Rciesla (3656), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA
