# 35 Bottle. [Papsoe’s great blind tasting, thanks Henrik!] Large creamy brown head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. This beer ranged from clear to heavy muddy with particles. Color was amber / nut-brown. Aroma of bread, alcohol, vinous, fruit. Over the palate came smooth toasted malt, nice peach and fruit. Full bodied with a soft carbonation. Moderated sweet flavor with light bitterness. Sweet malty and alcoholic finish. 7-3-7-4-15 = 3.6 19-04-2008

850th rating. 2003 vintage 750 ml bottle. Pours a semi clear amber with a thick, yet creamy beige head. Nice lacing. Aroma of tangy and malty citrus, honey and caramel. Taste of tangy hops, malt with a touch of caramel and honey. This has held up nicely.

Y2K shared by Dickonsonbeer at YEHA. Poured cloudy amber with medium white head. Aroma is citrus hops. Taste has held up very well for being 8 years old. Great piney, citrus hop taste with a caramel malt undertone. A little sweet but certainly easy to drink. Nice!

Used to drink this back in the day...then they retired it. Why!! Clear orange color with no head. Sweet muted hop flavor.

Madness with the Moose. Not many IPA’s this year. Pours a cloudy copper color with a white soapy head. Aroma of citrus, hops and some malts. Sweet for an IPA-balance between hops and citrus.

Bottle shared at Madness w/ the Moose. Pours a light brownish amber with a creamy average size white head. Sweet honey malty amber aroma with some slight hops still holding on. Medium bodied that is very smooth with light carbonation. Sweet flavor with still a slight touch of hops. Probably the best thing to come out of Y2K, far better then all the stupid ass T-shirts.
