| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 26, 2004 Smells and tastes like an IPA. Ruby in color with brown and a light tan head. Not quite the power a normal Pale Ale has in its taste, and little kick after the swallow. shadey (1501), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 24, 2004 Updated: Mar 11, 2005This is one I would prefer not to do from memory. Too bad I am sitting at work and I can’t pour one right now. Its a decent brown ale. Flavor is better than some. If you really want a good brown ale, head up to Victoria and grab a Spinnakers brown. 5/2/6/3/14
RERATE: I don’t know if the recipe has changed, but this was a different brew than I remember. The aroma and flavor were sweeter. The palate was a little light for a brown. Very drinkable, but it seemed synthetic to me. mohawksin (187), Nebraska, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 20, 2004 Nice dark color. Head has big bubbles. Good toasted grain flavor, didn’t notice the hops too much. ontario102 (794), Boise, Idaho, USA

This beer is not as what it used to be, or perhaps my palate’s changed? Get’s worse each time I sample it. No more. jgentgesdo (564), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jun 14, 2004 Poured from bottle with thin, quickly resolved head. Smells clean and crisp. Amber color, very clear. Thin, oily mouthfeel that is the most disappointing aspect of this beer. Wheaty flavor with a touch of citrus, mildly bitter finish. Lots of hops and they are enjoyable. I think I need to try this one from the tap. robertsreality (2460), Minnesota, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 12, 2004 Brownish Caramel Coloring. Creamy Head. Tastes of oats or cereal. Not the worst aile to try. 5000 (2600), Hardened Liver, Washington, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 7, 2004 Bottle pours a translucent ruby caramel, small creamish off-white head, fairly sticky lacing, with good amounts of carbonation. Malts and light hops on the nose. Quite malty up front, slight cereal flavor. Finishes somewhat flat, slightly thin. I remember this being one of the better micros back in the mid 90s, but either time or my palate has made some changes.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 6, 2004 Deep amber in color, thin head and little carbonation. Not very impressive but not bad.
