hazy dark yellow, thin fine beige head, touch of lace, nice floral hop aroma with some carmel sweetness, light dry carmel malt flavor, well balanced with a decent amount of hops, not much character, hop bitterness grows until it takes over and it’s nothing but bitterness

| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Aug 2, 2007 Sour cherry aroma. Al little light on the amber scale in my book. Quickly dissipating white head. Lots of sweet caramel in the flavor, some fruitiness and slight citric twang. Some funk in the aftertaste. Uhh, not t0o tasty. lb4lb (2011), Austin, Texas, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 29, 2007 On tap at the Gingerman; nice dark gold color, with no head. Apricot, hoppy, fruitiness in the nose. Taste was fruity, hoppy, almost acidic, and somewhat drying. Good all around beer, but not my favorite from Saint Arnold. illinismitty (1797), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 20, 2007 Bottle from decaturstevo. Thanks my friend! Pours pale orange amber with an off white head. Aroma of caramel, cereal grains, and citrus. Initial flavor of light toasted grains that transitions to a faint bitter middle, with faint notes of fermenting pineapple. Acidic like finish, along with some toasty multi grain bread notes. Interesting beer. Not very good cold, but opens up a bit as it warms. Very bread like yeast strain...man it’s late. I don’t know what I am doing. Good night folks. theisti (1664), Leawood, Kansas, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 8, 2007 12 oz. bottle from Zinister. Pour is reddish golden. Smallish medium white head. Aroma is some malt and a little bit of hop. Taste has some sharpness to it, and finishes with a little bit of sourness. I really have liked the Saint Arnold beers, but this is one I could have passed on. Thanks again Michael! cbkschubert (1974), Cochise Co., Arizona, USA

Light lacing. Aroma is herbal and light citrus hops, and a tad bit of toasted malt. Decent hop/malt balance. A easy drinking amber. Light to medium body. A decent beer.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 16, 2007 I had this beer on draft in Houston and was very pleased as I had not heard of it before. The aroma was solid with citrus and pine hops, maybe some fruit, and some caramel malt. The color was amber-gold and it was a bit cloudy with a moderate off-white head. The taste was mostly sweet, lightly sour and it had a wet body.
