| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 6, 2009 Huzzah, another deleted rating, along with my Apple Ale--where the f do these ratings go? Dammit. Clear orange caramel with a mostly lasting one finger beige head. Mildly sweet caramel with some almond sugar cookie malts up front with some light toasted malts and nobles in the background, as well as some spicy alcohol that lets you know the (unknown) strength of this beer. Flavor is much the same and the spicy alcohol was I think due in part to some noble hop spiciness as well. Bitterness peaked around a 3 in the lightly alcoholic semi-dry finish. Medium full body with moderate carbonation. I really enjoy this beer and kinda wish I had even more of it! Thanks to Colin for my original two bottles. I love this beer. sneagrams3 (1764), St. Louis, Missouri, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Jan 20, 2009 Tasted 12/30/08. 12oz bottle. An unactivated pour leaves a trace layer of gunk on the bottom of the bottle. Slightly hazy with an amber golden hue. Moldy off-white head. Aromas of dark rustic breads and caramel. Mild spice undertone. Medium bodied with a surprisingly big, bold palate. Big malty character. Good blast of bitterness, either from the yeast or the hops. Sweet citrus hops in the finish. Touch fruity, nutty and slightly sour. Warms splendidly. Tight tart tingle. Mildly lingering finish. Wow! This is terrific! nuplastikk (1259), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Apr 20, 2009 12oz bottle. A Dusseldorf style Alt this is not. Cloudy brown-amber color, nice minimal head. Sweet, mellow aroma. The taste is reminiscent of Tripel in its doughy sweetness, but there is significantly more caramel malt. Deep and rich, doughy and drinkable. I’d think this beer was at least 8%. Great stuff. phishpond417 (1953), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Nov 21, 2008 One of the best if not the best offerrings I’ve had from New Glarus. Incredibly delectable, rich, satisfying in every way- just well balanced full flavored brew. Sampled from the bottle this beautiful beer poured a vibrant copper colour with a slight hazeyness. Head is quick to rise and easy to settle. Taste is satisfying and inviting on all sides. Black cherry, caramel undertones, oak and brown sugar on the palate. Aroma is of bright fruits, earth, soft hops and herbs. AWESOME representation of this style from NG. grimreeser (797), Minnesota, USA
