| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | May 6, 2007 Bottle... Clear chestnut-colored ale with a small, creamy, khaki head. Decent retention. Caramel-apple nose with vinous undertones. Decently balanced, caramel-apple flavor with equal bitterness and sweetness and moderate acidity. Medium-bodied and watery with lively carbonation. Crisp, grassy finish. Thanks to boboski for giving me this bomber! jcat (23), USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 23, 2007 Toffee and slight molasses on the aroma. Chestnut amber in color with a fluffy eggshell head that dissipates. Fairly chewy flavor of cherries, toffee, chocolate and some roasted malts. Slightly fruity with a tinge of hops at the swallow. Not too bad - a decent drinker.
