| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 16, 2004 I am noticing on my bottle it says "untouchable we’re watching 002" is this the bottling year? I don’t believe this particular brew is designed for aging. Perhaps I purchased an old bottle. ( or maybe I am just stupid and I am reading it wrong) Anyway here goes.... poured dandelion yellow with creamy white head. Grassy, fruity hop aroma with lots of sediment. Flavor seems to border on faint carmel/grapefruit and water. Extremely light bodied and bland. Nice pleasant hoppy finish. Overall, you really have to concentrate to find any flavor here. Like I said I am not sure if I bought an old bottle or if this is the way it should be. I will have to try a different bottle and re-rate. Aubrey (2777), Denver, Colorado, USA
