| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Mar 3, 2007 Deep golden color out of the bottle with a quickly diminishing off white head. Nose of wet cereal grains and something chalky. Flavors of raw grain, dark pit fruit, light caramel sweetness and a dark rye bread. Very nice alt beer, and I really like this style, and this beer, as a regular beer with food. I wish I could get this at home.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 3, 2007 Copper amber colored beer with half an inch of white foam on top. Very lively carbonation. Smells nice and carmelly. The taste is smooth and malty, some hazelnut, lightly carmel. Nice little hop bite there to counteract the malt. A bit tangy in the aftertaste - very pleasant.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 28, 2007 While this beer didn’t strike me as being incredibly on-style, it did impress me as being a very tasty amber ale.
Appearance was a sparkling copper red with an abudant white head (good).
Aroma was light and like a very good amber ale (Breckenridge Avalanche comes to mind).
Flavor was malty with a very lightly sweet and sour aftertaste. It was good.
Mouthfeel was light.
Overall, I would recommend this beer. jason (1623), Easton, Pennsylvania, USA
