| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 20, 2008 As cold as I got this one it still gushed a little. I liked the richness and spice of this. The body was really nice and had nice head retention and quite a bit of carbonation but was not too much. Very sweet and malty almost a touch of maolasses. Saison type spice for me but a little more bite at the end like rye or clove. Very good. mar (1972), Dallas, Texas, USA
