| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Jun 29, 2001 An exceptional product from a small brewery in NJ. If I had to live with one ale, this would be it. Admiral (524), Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 8, 2009 A light cranberry red. Clear but for the fog on the glass. One half finger of foamy off-white head. Lots of bubbles. Diggin’ the look.
Strong alcohol aroma, just this side of a barleywine. Some sweetish leathery malt notes. Hints of dark berry. A light barleywine smell.
The taste is strong and a bit puckery sour. Some leathery malt, almost like a porder in its darkness, but balanced by some dark berry. Hints of dark caramel. Strong malts. Hops are English and subdued.
The feel is thick, almost like a cream ale; full bodied. It’s a drinkable "special ale." They call it an ESB but it’s far stronger. Nice and substantial. BT (85), Newtown, Connecticut, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 20, 2005 12 oz. bottle in a shaker. Poured orange-reddish, aroma of malts some hops; the commerical description is almost spot-on, except the thin body, and a bit too much carbonation, slight malt in the mouth. Easy to down.

Sampled with Stegosaurus, he brought it back from the brewery for me. sampled four different beers, this was my favorite of them. Beautiful pour, good aroma, great flavor. raymow (738), Bensalem, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 12, 2003 Nice appearance. Slightly sweet flavor, also somewhat malty. Not at all hoppy. Pretty good, but something seems to be missing. Still, I'd buy it again.
