| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 26, 2007 Bottle: Pours an orange amber color with big white head. Barely noticeable malt aroma. Flavor is lots of carmel malt with a barely noticeable hint of hop flavor. Very generic, only thing that stands out is its good medium creamy body. bitbucket (2034), Kirkland, Washington, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 19, 2007 Bottle. Pours a clear reddish amber with a scant off-white head. Sweet, malty aroma with a touch of noble hops behind it. Lightly sweet caramel taste, with a crisp and just barely spicy finish. The alcohol is a bit high for a session beer, but everything else works for it. glkaiser (1171), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 16, 2007 Light clear amber with good head. Mildly sweet malt aroma. You can smell the alcohol as it warms. Alcohol is in the taste as well, but just enough.The hops give it a little bitterness, but the malt still dominates throughout. Not bad, not great....like many of Pyramid’s beers. Angeloregon (2025), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 2, 2007 Thanks to Tom for the taste! Sweet malty nose that translated to the flavor. Amber/deep copper appearance, medium carbonation. Sweet and malty. Hoped for more hops. Lingering sweetness from malts. Nice Cascade hops, but not enough. mlist55 (210), media, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 23, 2007 Amber color. Not very flavorful. Malty flavor, but nothing interesting. Again another half-ass pyramid brew.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jun 4, 2006 Smells of medium roasty malt, with a hint of lemon. Color of overripe apricot. A bit thin, with grassy notes. And malt. And malt. But not sweet thicky malt. Just malt. Finishes thin, with a bit more sour than bitter. And the malt hangs in to the end. Very drinkable, but not what I’d stock up for a desert island.
