| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 10, 2008 Pours a somewhat hazzy, deep brown with an off-white head that settles down to a thin, but present, layer. Mild aromas of roasted barley and nuts. Taste is nutty and malty with some bitterness, but hardly overpowering. Nicely rounded and tasty without over-emphasing any particular element. drjay44 (808), Salida, Colorado, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 9, 2008 Poured a nice head with creamy color which rapidly settled. Minimal lacing, nice pleasant non hoppy nose, great brownish red color, mild malty flavor with good nut characteristics with a light finish. A bit too light on the tongue. oteyj (777), Canterbury, New Hampshire, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 7, 2008 Pours reddish brown with two finger frothy head. Aroma mainly of caramel malt. Flavor is a blend of roasted malt with some hop bitterness, but is not overly spectacular or complex. Mouthfeel is a bit on the thin side with a bit of astringency. Pretty good for the style, but nothing to jump up and down about.
