| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 28, 2008 Pours a transparent golden orange with a thin, wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet caramel and fruity esters with a touch of graininess and oak. Body starts semi-sweet and smooth with a mild light fruity tart balance before a drier, drinkable finish. The sake yeast makes this a pretty interesting and unique brew even if its not overwhelming. Cletus (5060), Connecticut, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 12, 2008 Bottle from Capone’s. Pours gold with some chill haziness and minimal head. Nose is malt, some ricey sake notes, mild hops and yeasty spices. Tastes lagery, with some ricey sake notes that become apparent as it warms. I expected this to be more sake-like, but it’s more like a beer/sake hybrid, with the sake yeast giving some unique flavor and palate sensations. Lubiere (4552), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
