| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 1, 2008 On Tap at Roman’s. Poured a orange brown, with a decent tan head. Aroma of hops and malts. Taste was heavy hops and malts, leaning towards the malt sweetness. Decent on the palate, smooth and a bit thick. This is ok to have one of, but I wouldn’t drink it too often. Decent.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 29, 2008 Had an orance color with aroma of hopps, light malt, and grass. Tastes covered most hops and had a warm sensation going down. Also a bit of citrus in the taste. Not a bad brew. Would buy again if it wasn’t retired. Erdinger2003 (127), Ames, Iowa, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Dec 12, 2007 The beer poured out a syrupy golden brown without a lot of head.
It smelled hoppy and sweet.
The flavor was very hoppy with sweet and malty aftertones.
It felt syrupy and smooth in my mouth.
It’s a nice beer to sip on once in a while, but isn’t one of my favorites I will try one more of the 5 or 6 I have left again for a second opinion. hopdog (5609), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA
