| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 3, 2007 Bottle. Pours sparkling yellow with an average-size frothy white head, somewhat lasting, good lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (grain, straw, meal), average hops (herbs, grass), heavy yeast (sweat, musty) with notes of butter and paper. Medium bodied, oily texture, soft carbonation and a bitter finish. Average duration, moderate sweetness and bitterness, light acidity; sour milk. MrBunn (1533), Western, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 27, 2007 Bottle. Rather clear amber color with quite a bit of carbonation and a small white head that has died down to a thin surface covering in short order. Aromas are sweet and grainy with a little bit of a grassy note in the background. Flavor is much heavier than I expected. You can tell that it has a 7% ABV and there is a solid malt body that supports it. That said, I’m not sold on it... the flavors are OK, but nothing that is going to make my week. Subtle mix of intriguing flavors is not why you would buy this... Big alcohol body... sure. dkoonce (884), People’s Republic of Athens, Ohio, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 15, 2007 Bottle. Clear amber, with a thick durable pure white head. Very malty aroma, with a bit of fruit, perhaps melon. Fairly light body for such a high alcohol beer. Good balance of hops and a nice fizzy mouth feel. detroiter (958), Euphoria, Minnesota, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 3, 2007 Pours a clear golden amber color with a quarter inch or so of foam. The head sticks around through much of the glass, but leaves minimal lacing. Mild sweet malt in the aroma.
The texture of this beer is impressive - it is quite smooth, with a medium body and great carbonation. The taste is lightly sweet and malty, and very clean. There is a mild floral/herbal hopping that balances the malt nicely HumuloneRed (750), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 15, 2006 12 oz. bottle. Pours clear medium pale with a white head and a little lacing. Nice and malty with an earthy hop bite in the finish. Nice beer. dp (512), uniontown, Ohio, USA
