| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 29, 2009 Pour is a cola looking brown with a small tan head. Aroma has some spice and brown sugar with a touch of dark fruit. Flavor is pretty much the same some dark fruit, candi sugar and molasses. A nice earthyness is left on the tounge after the swallow. This is by far one of the better if not the best beers this brewer makes. tedovertu (260), Apple Valley, Minnesota, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Feb 28, 2009 Kind of an odd sweet flavor. Malty light bread and cookie dough aroma. Small off white head with virtually no lacing. Dark amber color with a sweet initial flavor. Light to medium bodied with a creamy texture. Lively carbonation. A forgettable brew.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 13, 2009 This brew certainly differs from all the other Point beers in that they have tried to add a little more character, but it does not even come close to matching other beers of the same style. jjkuck10 (36), , Wisconsin, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 8, 2009 Brown, burbon color with just off white head. Spicy aroma. Nutty, cinnamon, carmel taste starting strong but ending somewhat weak. Merrill (77), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 4, 2009 Brown, whiskey color wiht near white head that lasts. Nutty, spicey aroma with banana, vanilla, - very appealing aroma. Malt, rye, cinnamon, coriander, possibly some nutmeg. Roasty flavor with generous mouth, but somewhat thin overall. Very nice balance which counteracts the tendency in this beer style to a cloying, bready buildup. I can’t usually drink more than one spiced beer, but this I can drink several. fatguys (65), Wisconsin, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jan 21, 2009 Bottle into pint glass. Pours a very dark ruby red with a hint of copper. The head is oddly perfectly white and relatively think for a Point brew. It sits well on this one. There’s a caramel-nutmeg-bourbon-like taste in this one that hits the tongue well in front but leaves little in the back. There’s not much depth, and it’s very thin, but it’s nice to see Point trying something a little more exotic.
