| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 10, 2008 Not especially good. Aroma is generic maltiness, with some small hop influence, while the flavor is the same. Nothing really special here. SmellGood (319), Memphis, Tennessee, USA

Pours a copper gold with a nose of barley-wine flavors along with toffee and brown sugar. Flavor is same with cotton candy, malt, and some hops. Malt lingers with some fruitiness.
