| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 9, 2007 (Bottled) Clear, dark copper color with a medium, fluffy and tanned, quite lasting head. Berry-fruity aroma with some nutty hops and toffeeish malt. Moderately bitter, pretty fruity and lemony flavor with a long, woody-hoppy finish. Medium-bodied, bitter, dryish, somewhat stingy palate with soft but foamy carbonation. A reasonably pleasant, but pretty straightforward bitter. ekstedt (2447), Göteborg, Sweden

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Feb 25, 2007 Pours a nice amber colour with a nice white head. Aroma is fairly hoppy, with a waft of caramel. Flavor is quite bitter with some earthy undertones. Aftertaste lingers and has a bit of a bready taste. Fairly strong carbonation. Overall a bit too bitter for me, but for those with more of a preference towards bitters, should be nice. Stopherbomber (111), London, England
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 25, 2007 this is a strong malty flavoured ale with a good aftertaste to it. reasonably priced at somerfields at the moment as well. Dezzilu (212), Whitmore Lake, Michigan, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Feb 12, 2007 A nice dark color with a lacey white head that stuck with the glass until the last swallow. The aroma was nice, to quite nice, with a hint of molasses and strong hops. The flavor was wonderfully light and refreshing with a clean a finish that was satisfying, too very satisfying. The only draw-back was it ended just a wee bit bitter for my tastes. Otherwise, a beer that lives up to it’s commercial description. Cheers.
