| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 21, 2009 A pretty rust color with a thick tan head. Lightly roasted malt aroma is pleasant and inviting. Light malt flavor accompanied by a noticeable tinny, metallic taste followed by a decently clean and warm finish. A little flat. Very drinkable. Lacing is just okay. BroSpud (606), , Massachusetts, USA
| 1.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Feb 21, 2009 Jug bottle. Bought this one primarily for the collection. Don’t remember much other than it was drinkable. Nothing special. aaaaaaaaaah (63), Warren, Michigan, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Feb 11, 2009 $3.49/L Average creamy off white head with excellent lacing. Dark amber body hue. Aroma is of sweet bread and molasses malt. Hints of honey, brown sugar and licorice also. Flavor is sweet and creamy and slightly bitter at end with disappointing metallic finish. Short aftertaste. Decent cheap beer and underrated! ROGUE (676), Newark, Delaware, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Feb 4, 2009 32oz jug. It pours a nice dark amber mahogany with a thick, pale beige, fairly persistent head. Aroma is malty and has just a hint of fruit. Flavor is malty and has touches of smoke and molasses, pleasant but not thick or mouth filling. Texture is smooth and just a little watery. Not too shabby.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 31, 2009 Jug bottle from BevMo Mission Valley. Cool bottle, ok beer. Pours a deep brown with a 2 finger beige head. Nutty and toasted malt aromas with a smooth, creamy finish. scottw86 (183), Maryland, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 29, 2009 At $2 a jug, I couldn’t resist, even if I thought it was going to be horrible. Poured a black with a small quickly-disappearing head. Not too much aroma, mainly of chocolate malts and nuts. Taste is very smooth and very nutty. Finish is creamy and sweet. I was shocked at how not-horrible this was. I’d go as far to say it’s actually pretty good! fidelis83 (729), Clinton, Iowa, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 25, 2009 Pours a glear dark garnet with a 2 finger fizzy light tan head that fades fairly quickly to a skim and ring. Aroma is roast, cereal grain, grassy hops. Flavor is similarly roasty, straw, light grass, some bitter hops, a little earthy chocolate. FInish is nutty, with herbal and slightly bitter hops. Body is pretty thin and over carbonated, with a slightly acidic feel. ansermadide (516), Kyle, Texas, USA
