| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Dec 26, 2003 Copper clear pour with minimal head that leaves fast. All I can smell is celery, with a faint hint of floral hops. Acidic start with decently strong hoppy finish. Probably a better summer beer. DYCSoccer17 (2192), Davis, California, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Dec 26, 2003 Pours a transparent copper with a 1cm quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is strange-Windex! Start is bitter/tart leading into some strong hops. Hops to finish. Fairly 1 dimensional. A decent seasonal brew. mribm (419), Hurley, New York, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 15, 2003 Bottle. Poured with a small, yet long lasting off-white head, which left ample lacing. The beer was a beautiful orange color and had the aroma of apricots. This beer had a slight apricot taste, with sweet malt and some nice bitter hoppiness, which came through strong in the finish. I'm not real fond of the apricot nose and flavor, however it isn't a real bad beer. A nice change in the winter months. CapFlu (3483), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 11, 2003 Tipsy apricots trying to hold on to the nutmeg...Citrus fluidity and almond skin timidity...Brandy is scattered here and there, but never fully takes hold of the situation...
