| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Aug 9, 2007 Maybe the bottle I had was old... Seemed a little thin to me and tasteless. Not terrible, but a bit hollow and like a stout-light. Somewhat over carbonated...

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 24, 2006 From a 12 oz. long neck bottle with no freshness date.
Poured a ruby hued dark brown with a foamy, fluffy off-white head that settled into a thin bubbly lacing, very minimal amount of sticking.
Aromas of raisins, molasses, toasted nuts, a soft caramel and a bit earthy.
Good, even, steady carbonation and a lightly crisp, smooth light bodied mouthfeel.
Pleasant tasting, a nice nuttiness and soft caramel, a subtle raisin and molasses, lightly earthy and leafy hops, and a toasted nuts, soft caramel finish.
A nice brown ale from New Mexico, very enjoyable.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 26, 2006 Bottle. Has a sweet malty aroma along with some nut and caramel. Body is dark with a red hue and disipating head. Flavor was mostly sweet malt but also had a mild roast and bitterness to it. Medium body blend that was smooth on palate and left a somewhat dry roasted coffee aftertaste on the palate. 0o9i (335), Reno, Nevada, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Feb 4, 2006 Bottled. Smells great with a full, malty aroma dominated by malts. Appearance is clear, brown with a small head and little lace. Flavor was a let down after the nice aroma. The front is nice with nuts and caramel and chocolate, but the finish is watery and blande. Body wasn’t so great.
