| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 9, 2008 Cask @ Charlie’s bar. I can’t believe how smoky this place really is. I had no enjoyment at all with this beer, and that is a petty. Really think they should make this place smoke free, so we can actually taste the beers that are being served. Small creamy beige head that mostly diminished. Fair display of lacework. Somewhat cloudy amber color. Aroma was killed by cigarette smoke, what I could pick up was light fruit, hint of toasted malt, light floral and citrus notes as well. Over the palate the hops becomes a bit more evident. Light to medium bodied with a soft carbonation and light dry texture. Light bitter and sweet flavor in fairly good balance. Light dry and bitter finish. Aurelius (2647), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 8, 2008 Pretty good label and bottle. Goldings, slightly cigarette-y aroma. Peaty malt, yeasty, a little metallic, generally gave a pretty dry impression. Copper color. Medium body. Sticky bitter aftertaste. Pretty good. aerosol999 (113), Quebec, Canada

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 21, 2008 500ml bottle (Kolme Kaisaa, Helsinki)<bt>
Mid orange, alas poured with a bit of yeast so was quite hazy. Slightly sour fruity aroma, maybe wild strawberry. Alas a bit yeasty, but a good full bodied bitter taste. There’s a bit too much sour taste, maybe from the yeast? Finish is dense, some bitterness from burnt malt, almost like an espresso. Not as good as the old Eldridge Pope beer of the same name. mabel (2590), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Cloudy, dark brown body with a medium-lasting creamy white head and nice lacing. Bitter grainy malt flavour. Medium body is fairly smooth. Disgusting aroma. SSSteve (2062), Atlanta, Georgia, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 8, 2008 Bottle. Pours a hazy orange-amber with a large mostly-lasting fluffy off-white head. Very mild aroma and flavour of light caramel malt, fruit, faint hops with a touch of funkyness. A bit of sourness in the flavour as well and an average bitter finish. Average bodied. I was expecting more from this beer, I thought it was just O.K.
