| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 14, 2009 Older bottle thanks to Lt. Dan. From the description it doesn’t appear that this is an ale at all. Maybe this was a description made for the TABC and a future bid at the Texas market (anything over 5% MUST, by law, be labeled as a ale or malt liquor). Pours a hazed gold with a receding white head. Aroma of honey, apricot and bread. Quite sweet overall with maybe a touch of (lightly acidic) pineapple). Taste is lightly hoppy with apricot jam and a thin caramel malt background. Light bubbles medium mouthfeel. Not a bad beer. AmEricanbrew (1929), orange, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 21, 2008 Clear amber with a frothy head that sticks around. Interesting malty sweet ripe pit fruit aroma. Very smooth, rich mouthfeel. Good amber ale flavor is mildly sweet caramel and pit fruits, with a subtle floral hop taste to finish. Enjoyed this one. 3247 Ibrew2or3 (2766), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 2, 2008 Bomber pours clear gold with off white head. The aroma is full with sweet malts, pale malts, floral hops and a mild pulse of spice hops. The taste begins with a spike of floral and spice hops that seem to grow in bitterness as the finish approaches. The bitterness is nearly lemon tartness-like. The malt sweetness is kind of bland and sugary. I’m not sure I’m enjoying this one too much. I think it comes across better under different circumstances. But right now, not so much. doubleo (1121), San Diego, California, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 7, 2008 22oz bomber. Got this from Baron’s in Del Mar, cold stored for it’s entire life. Pours a clearish straw colored yellow. Thin white head that hangs around for a while. Not a whole lot of nose on it. Just a little malt, that’s all. Tastes like a Belgian, malty sweet, grainy. Looks like straw, tastes a little like straw too. Palate is thin, ok carbonation. Coats the mouth a little bit. Drinkable, but not that great. badlizard (2372), Berkeley, California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 28, 2007 650 ml bottle from Bevmo. Hazy golden amber with a creamy white head. Pleasant fruit, grain, and malt aroma. This has a great taste sweet passion fruit, nectar, and honey finishing with an interestingly rough grainy finish. The alcohol is well hidden. An under-rated beer that’s actually quite good. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | May 20, 2007 Acidic and slightly sour nose with notes of overripe apricots and alcohol. Warming and dms laden palate with some apparent oxidation. Liongering astringent finish.
