| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 3, 2009 Growler shared by Beerbill, thanks Bill, @ PilsnerPeter’s gathering. It has a glowing brown (yes it is possible) color with a thick head that never fades. Aroma is vegetal yet grainy. Its like the good buckwheat (ala their Abt) but with a weird bland yam or other root veg. Taste has less veg and more graininess but mainly its just watery black bread. It needs a little work. thenick (744), North Bellmore, New York, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 28, 2009 Tap @ Blind Tiger, Southampton event. Pours a deep ruby-brown with a small off-white head. Aroma is malt, dark fruit, slight nuts, and Belgian yeast. Taste is roughly the same with a wonderful sweetness coming throughout the beer. You could tell it wasn’t very high alcohol, and I liked it like that. This beer knows exactly what it is, and it doesn’t try to do anything more than deliver that experience well. I liked it.
