| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 20, 2008 Bottle, but says 5.9% abv on it. Pours a nice copper color with a small, clingy, tan head. Taste is of caramel, roasted malt, and hops. Sweet tasting, with a bitter, dry finish. Clean and very easy to drink. Caramel and malt aroma. Overall, this is a pretty decent beer, that is easy to drink in large quantities. I’d say it is worth purchasing again. guzzler67 (1288), Hanover, Maryland, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 20, 2008 Hazy bronze appearance with an average size head and very good lacing. Earthy, caramel malt aroma. Taste is fairly sweet, but not cloying. Toasted malts up front with enough Saaz hops to keep things in balance and add a slightly spicy dimension. Dry, moderately bitter, medium length finish. Matches up well to your basic domestic Octoberfest. Chipper (193), Red Lion, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 19, 2008 Amber color with a moderate off-white head. Not much aroma, other than a little malt, and maybe some hops. Flavor is sooth, but watery. Drinkable but forgettable. thechandler (271), Morgantown, West Virginia, USA

Tap @ Tacomac, johns creek. clear copper color, light tan creamy looking head. . Flavor is like a lightly spiced fall seasonal attempt of a pumpkin/autumn brew. Light aroma of toasted malts, even lighter hops. It’s your basic amber ale. 2,4,3,4,9 Iamjake (5), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA does not count | 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Oct 15, 2008 Bottle. Pours rich amber with a smallish tan head. Aroma is heavy on grain and sweet fruit. Taste is lightly acidic and rather sweet with a lightly bitter finish. Overall not a bad beer for the early fall season. I think it will quickly lose it’s appeal once the outside temp drops below 70 though.
