Mild sweet, somewhat cloying nose of chestnuts and old salami. Medium creamy body, goes a bit watery in spots but in a refreshing way. Nuts, caramel, biscuit, and oranges on the mid-palate. Mild orangey finish. Drinkable.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 12, 2009 Pours a clear orange color with a lot of effervense along the side of the glass. No lasting head to speak of. Aroma is faintly hop bitters with an undercurrent of biscuits. Taste is sweet malt, light caramel touch. Palate is creamy with just a thin bitter aftertaste.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 20, 2009 Shared a bottle of this with family. Clear orange with a thin white head, some visible bubles. Aroma is bread and sweet grain, with a touch of resinous hop. Has a lot of sweet toasty grain flavor and reminds me a bit of plain popcorn. Some mildly spicy hops balance it out on the finish. I liked this much more than I expected to. Very full flavored. fakepurseninja (797), Washington, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Oct 19, 2009 Strange PineSol aroma. Nice appearance of an orange tinged caramel body with a minimal whte head. Stale bready malt backbone with sour citrus and very light caramel sweetness. Somewhat floral and very dry. Light seasonal spices and a bit of nuttiness. Very pedestrian. dwyerpg (2553), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 3, 2009 Quite malty aroma. Good orange color. Nice flavor that is balanced well and is incredibly smooth. Two for two with silver city. Need to visit. robforbes (1114), Bremerton, Washington, USA

smell is faint, some malt, and some earth.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 17, 2009 Nose is sweet with caramel and nuts. Some pepper and almost solvent like sweet alcohol. One could think this is way stronger than its 6.4 percent. Pours golden amber with absolutely no head retention or lace. Nutty initially, caramel, residual sugars, toasted grains, and noticeable alcohol. Maybe too sweet. Drinks ok, but this doesn’t seem to style for me. dirt55 (155), Washington, USA
