| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 5, 2003 Keg Brown color, with a persistent creamy layer. Very light aroma. Ordinary flavor, a bit nutty. argo0 (6948), Washington DC, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 1, 2003 Small beige head atop a ruby body. Aroma is fairly sweet, and malty -- nutty and slightly roasty. Taste is nutty and moderately sweet, hint of roastiness toward the back of the throat. Also some floral hops. Medium bodied, with less-than-usual carbonation. Not a bad beer, but my description seems like it should make me like it more than I do. bu11zeye (5564), Frisco, Texas, USA

Malty, nutty nose and flavor. Toffee, caramel and chocolate. Well-balanced, but a tad thin. Medium-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and medium carbonation. Short, clean, lightly bitter finish. Great session beer. Cletus (5056), Connecticut, USA

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 1, 2003 Orange/brown color with a small, but stable light tan head. Toffee aroma with a hint of chocolate and hops. Initial light sweetness leading to full out honey roasted peanuts/almonds. Some hops flavors, but not enough bitterness to balance the sweetness. Decent maltiness in the finish, but to much sweetness in the forefront.
