Pours a reddish amber color with a medium off-white head and good lacing. Aroma is surprisingly hoppy, along with wood, caramel malt, and toffee. Flavor is mildly sweet and very good with caramel malt, toffee, wood, butterscotch, and some hops on the finish. Smooth on the palate with some mild bitterness. Drinkability is high for the style and ABV. daknole (3028), Scottsdale, Arizona, USA

Carmel malt, brown sugar, honey and fruits dominate the aroma. Flavor is heavy on the malty fruitiness with very, very light hops. I liked the caramel and honey notes in this one very much. Good brew. Hophead22 (1106), Redlands, by way of Wisconsin,, California, USA

Thin soft white head. Aroma is filled with caramel hints of deep red flowers, butterscotch and orange. Surprisingly light on the tongue. Sweet caramel with a nice malty background. Only hoppy enough to tell you that it has hops. The alcohol is present, but not overwhelming. Tastes like a beer meant to go with a rich meal. HighlanderOne (546), Somewherein, New Jersey, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 14, 2009 Poured from big bottle. Wild aroma - butterscotch, apple and booze.. Copper color, tan head. Dry barley, toffee, vegetable flavor with alcohol in back. Earthy and slightly sour aftertaste. Slightly sticky feel. Alcohol doesn’t deter from flavor. Lacing. Mellows nicely. Not my favorite style, but quality stuff.
