| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jan 3, 2010 Consumed out of the limited 40oz bottle (very glad to have this bottle in my collection). Very perfumy, hoppy taste. Not typically malt liquor-like in the sense that it is craft-brewed and not macro-brewed but the essence is there. Low carbonation leads me to believe I should have left it for about 6 months before trying it. Odeed (1681), Bakersfield, California, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 6, 2009 I tend to rate malt liqour to style sorry bout that but this is one of the top dogs. Woof Woof! A golden color with a malty corn, grass, and lemon filled aroma. The flavor is also rather malty with little alchol detected. Some grassy notes and corn show through. Overall this would be a hell of a 40 to sip with yo home boys! smcolw (389), Wayland, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 1/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 1, 2009 Large, soda-pop styled bubbles during the pour. Short lasting; some spots of lace on the glass. Slightly hazy. Gold color
Earthy aroma; dry.
The flavor is much like the smell. Quite dry. If I were blindfolded, I would think of this as a malty pale ale. Good body. No notable alcohol characteristics. Mild hop. lithy (1850), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA

Poured clear copper color with a moderate frothy white head that mostly lasting with fair lacing. Medium grainy sweet aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium grainy sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration.
Drinkable brew and above average for style. SFLpunk (132), South Burlington, Vermont, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Jun 24, 2009 Quick review:
40oz brown glass plastic resealable top. No date.
Poured into an imperial pint with no head at all. Medium amber color. Nose is clean and light with some dry-hop notes, but rather closed. Palate is a flash of sweetness up front and then dry, almost British-like hops clean house. Not a bitter beer, but not a sweet strong lager either. Hops keep all in check and bottle conditioning probably makes a major difference here in terms of not being a sweet strong-lager.
The best malt liquor I’ve had yet, but I’m still not hugely impressed.
