| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 22, 2009 Pours a very beautiful murky old with a very thick off white head. Carbonation is nice out of my Sam Adams Sensory Glass.
Smells bready, earthy, crisp, fruity.
Tastes lightly of bread and very lightly fruity, crisp and refreshing, but a bit lacking in depth.
Mouth is light to medium in body, high in carbonation.
Excellent beer and another winner from New Glarus, quickly becoming my favorite brewery I can’t get. DuffManSW (293), Riverside, California, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 3, 2009 Courtesty of pfoxyjohn. Pours a copper color with a quick fading fizzy head. Nothing left on top. Aroma is musty, notes of berries, caramel. Interesting beer. There’s an alcohol sting and flavors are spicy hops, sweet caramel and toffee, sugars, and some fruity aspects like apple and cranberry (at least that’s what I thought I tasted!). Sweet caramel malt shows again in the finish and aftertaste. Again, this is interesting. I only knew the alcohol was this high after a little research upon receiving the bottle. Hard to rate because this went from very good to not my thing and back and forth throughout the whole beer. Probably somewhere in between. Thanks John!
