| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 10, 2009 On tap at The Beechtree. This was the only thing on tap that I had not previously had so I got myself a real pint. Quite disappointed. I’d have been better off getting a tasting portion and ordering a better beer. This one started off looking somewhat promising, pouring a lightly hazed amber with a rapidly deflating white head. Some aromas of spice and sweet malt. Thin to medium bodied without much flavor, save for a "I’d swear that’s a macro" corn cereal flavor before a lackluster attempt at a gently bitter finish. nqualls (1428), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Feb 3, 2009 12 oz bottle purchased from Frugal MacDoogal’s in Nashville. Poured a clear gold color with a two finger white head. The aroma was caramel and bread. The flavor was caramel and a slight bitter finish. Not my favorite beer. malrubius (1004), Valley Stream, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 29, 2009 12 ounce bottle in pint glass. Golden orange with lasting flat head. Toasted caramel and yeast aroma. Toasted caramel mild meolon and English hop flavor and bitterness. Fairly clean finish. Medium light body and medium carbo. Not bad. dchmela (1458), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 28, 2009 Pours a light gold with a frothy white head. Slightly sweet malt cardboard aroma. Malty sweet taste with hints of fruit and slight bitterness. I have had this many times and think the tap is far better than the bottle, but still just and ok beer.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 27, 2009 Jan. 27, 2009; 12 oz. bottle. Took this for an ESB on first tasting and, with a more aggressive hop presence, it might shoehorn into that category. Light, somewhat sour hops are overtaken by nearly-sickly-sweet & slightly oily malts. Reminiscent of a Magic Hat no. 9 I tried quite some time ago.
