| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Mar 13, 2005 Golden-amber colour. Heavy aroma of caramel and fresh malts. Watery body with light malt flavour. Where did those fresh grains go? I wouldn’t have pegged this as a steam beer, though. JoeMcPhee (5010), Jackson Heights, New York, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Mar 13, 2005 Light brown with a touch of ruby in it. Thin head. Aroma is quite toasty, grainy and heavily caramelized. Flavour is a bit nutty, light caramel and a touch of charcoal. Strange combination of flavours in such a thin-bodied beer.

It pours from the bottle a deep amber color with barely any lacing, let alone a head. Nice roasted malt aroma with a touch of grassiness. Very smooth mouthfeel, but perhaps a bit watery. Tastes of roasted malts, mildly sweet, with a subtle hop balance. Very clean finish.

| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 6/20 | Jan 18, 2005 Malty, aroma has plenty of caramel, butterscotch, honey and dark fruit. Dark copper-amber coloured body with shy, off-white, head that diminishes to thin ring. Malty flavour has some notes of butterscotch and toffee but seems somewhat flat and papery. Mild finishing bitterness keeps it from cloying. Medium-light body is somewhat sticky. Carbonation is unfortunately almost non-existent. Bottle.

Water malt and a hint of citrus. Thin and watery. Light bitterness on the dry finish. beerguy101 (3946), Newark, California, USA
| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Jan 9, 2005 Medium dark amber color. Small to no head. Aroma is caramel, sweet and honey. A medium to light bodied ale. Malts are fruity and estery, with a touch of cardboard and honey. Hops are slightly bitter. Not really sure just what this beer is supposed to be. The main flavors are malts, think of a nearly flat watered down coke, and the hops are mostly missing. WHATEVER…..At least this bottle was drinkable; the first was so bad I poured it out before even pouring it in the glass. Mouthfeel is thin. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly sweet with a large touch of cardboard. Braudog (3770), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 1/5 | 6/20 | May 10, 2004 Very dark amber color with almost no head. Obverse sugary-malty, alcohol-heavy character with no bitterness. No body to this weakling.
