| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Sep 3, 2007 750 ml bottle poured a cloudy orange with a large lasting amber head. Aromas of apple, carmel, spice, light honey and a hint of vanilla. Palate was medium bodied, crisp and slightly syrupy. Flavors of carmel, pepper, light fruitiness and light honey with a warming lingering sweet finish. This beer does not do a good job of hiding it’s alcohol and seems really sweet. joergen (8627), Frederiksberg, Denmark

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 30, 2007 Aroma of plums, malt and yeast, hazy ruby, pours a tiny tan head. Taste of sweet, juicy malts, red plums, anjou pears. Medium bodied, sweet, bitter and a fine tongue tingle. Terrific! As usual for these folks. papajohn (1055), San Diego (Mira Mesa), California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 28, 2007 750 ml bottle from Holiday Wine Cellar: Cloudy peach-amber color with a medium frothy off-white head. Aroma is peppery belgian yeast/spice. Flavor starts sweet over ripe tropical fruit followed by a spicy citrus bitterness and a lingingering dry orangy finish. Full body is rich with lively carbonation. after4ever (2806), Brier, Washington, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 27, 2007 750, corked and caged. Pours deep cloudy to murky brownish dark amber. Plenty of fizzy white bubbles up top; not too much lace though. Sharp sugary nose of candied oranges and cotton candy. Pleasant, but it starts me thinking right off the bat that this might benefit from some time to itself in a cool dark place, just to get itself together. Fizzy, medium-bodied attack, with plenty of that spicy orange pith happening right from the drop. Nice clean sugar and spice mid-palate, with the faintest hints of resin there at the end. Well-made, but definitely not the best beer they’ve done.
