| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 3, 2007 Hops and hints of some sort of tropical flavor. Very well rounded and full bodied. Surprised by how good the beer really was. The aroma was the best aspect of the beer with hints of flowers, fruit, and a little spice. bhensonb (4383), Woodland, California, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 2, 2007 Aroma with noticable citrus hop, some sort of tropical flower (hibiscus?), and arguably malt. Dark coppery color, with an off-white head. It laces. Starts with decent mouthfeel, a light sweetness, some sort of flowery taste (really), and a light bitterness. This is very unusual, and nice. The bitterness is not strong, but it extends. kenb (1100), Oregon, USA

This has a very appealing nose. A nice mix of caramel malts, spiciness, floral and some breadiness also. The taste is a bit of a letdown from the aroma, although still good.

Pours semi hazy dark red iwth a moderate off white head. Very fruity aroma with some caramel malts in the background. Moderate carbonation. Initial flavor is very malty, notes of caramel and toasted grains. Hints of orange come out in the finish, which has a teabag like bitterness. I enjoyed this much better around 55 degrees. When its cold, it finishes like a bitter orange tea. jimhilt (1691), Bow, New Hampshire, USA
