| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 2, 2009 Solid beer and one I’m glad to have around. I know I have a strange place in my brain for this beer style and can’t completely put my finger on why. While this stands on its own, it also somehow pays its respects to the style in having a rich, malty taste with a bitter finish that I enjoy.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 22, 2009 A very appealing O-fest. Creamy mouthfeel with wonderful malty goodness. TBS- the malt is not overt in any way, but restrained and subtle. A lovely beer that I wish had been around a few weeks ago when O-fest were what I was craving.
