| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jul 31, 2005 This is something the brewer brought to the ICBG Summer BrewFest besides their IIPA. The color is a bright yellow and the head is a frothy white. The aroma is an intense malt sweetness, a bit of pome fruits, and a trace of floral hopping. This thing was WAY TOO SWEET for me, and for the style, too, I would suggest. It actually made it difficult to distinguish other flavors that may have been present. The finish, a sticky sweet syrup. One’s enough for me.

| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Jul 24, 2005 Clear light amber body. Pencil eraser, nuts and anise in the questionable flavor. Tomatoes in the nose. Bad batch? StewardofGondor (1934), Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 18, 2005 Pale yellow color, extremely clear and vibrant, no head. Aroma is lemons and yeast. Taste is crisp and refreshing - a good match on a mid-April, 71-degree day. Flavor is predominantly lemony. Low bitterness. Somewhat astringent, but for once, that doesn’t bother me. Dry, silently sour finish. Mickey Finn’s did a nice rendition with this one. redlem (1155), Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 21, 2003 Crisp floral hop aroma, light bodied, standard dry Kolsch finish. Above average for its style, which is not my favorite.
