| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 1, 2009 Very cloudy medium copper colored body with a light khaki colored head. The nose is a little bit meaty with some notes of bread and sugar coated almonds. There is also a little bit of earthy sweat. The taste is lightly sweet with pecans and some wood. There is also some caramel and a little bit of oranges, especially in the long finish. Lightly carbonated, this is surprisingly easy to drink for the abv. I would like a little more sweetness. ¾ (4999), Colorado, USA

Nose is crusty bran and caramel malt, some dusty orange scented hops and light to medium fusel notes. Medium to heavy body - syrupy. Bread crust, toasted munich and caramel malt, some light oxidation, and some candied/syrupy but burnt artificial citrus fruit. Not as bad as expected.
