| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 25, 2004 Bottled. Amber colour, average head. Soapy, hoppy grapefruit aroma. Dry with clean mouthfeel. Grapefruit & apricot jam in the finish along with salty licorice and a healthy dose of of bitterness. All focus on the hops. Technical perfection, but lack of soul. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

clear amber, frothy beige head, drippy lace,
caramel aroma with light sweetness and a musty earthyness,
lots of bitter flavor, dry caramel tries to balance the bitterness, bitterness comes early and stays late,

| 1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 4/5 | 1/10 | 3/5 | 1/20 | Jan 11, 2007 Bottle... Mostly clear orange ale with a small, frothy, white head. Good retention. The aroma and flavor are of boiled shellfish; shrimp and mussels, specifically. This batch is just a DMS bomb! I’ve never smelled or tasted levels this high! Light to medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Lengthy, bitter, dry finish. Absolute drain pour! Infection? Closed boil? A shame! There was potential here... Hildigöltur (5109), København, Denmark
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Jul 14, 2005 Bottled. Amber coloured. Unpleasant notes of stearin in the arom. Sweet flavour. Very boring. Cornfield (4972), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 21, 2005 Pretty decent amber with a body the color of the style. It sports a tall, dense, chunky head, the kind that it’s fun to watch as it slowly collapses. The aroma is sweet, malty, and fruity with some floral hop scents. Medium bodied, it has a toasty malt flavor, sweet, with oranges and apples and a mild hop bitterness. Nice bitter/sour finish. Good session stuff.
