| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 8, 2007 Sweet malts, fruit and carmel aroma. Amber with a thin head. Good balance of fruit & hops, which make it quite "sessionable." Very smooth, with mild bitter notes. troyc (1175), Lubbock, Texas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 4, 2007 (Bottle) Pours a copper color with a small beige looking head. Aroma was rather light, but included some caramel and a light molassas. Taste is very malty, with a nice solid palate. There is lots of caramel flavor to this one. Some hops towards the end make this beer finish crisp and dry. I think this was a great beer, and something I will definitely have again! mattcoats (40), Norman, Oklahoma, USA
