| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 3, 2007 750mL bottled on Aug10 06. Pours a clear orange with a one finger beige head. Aroma of dusty bananas, fruity yeast, pepper and spices, a bit of pear. Flavor is spicy up front followed by some tartness, but only for a moment when it turns dusty and earthy through to the dry finish. Before the finish it is quite sweet. Alcohol is still a bit too warm for now. Full bodied with moderate prickly carbonation. Not too bad. luiss (89), Elmsford, New York, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 31, 2007 Bottle with a cork that says 2002 and a date that says bottled 2003. Smell is already citrousy like pineapple with hints of honey dew, fresh honey, and lemon tarts. Some pepper, and flower smells to this brew that make it a complex beer! Pours out a cloudy amber orange/ruby red color with a thick white head that is dampy and long lasting. Def yeasty and the sediments float on and about. The taste starts off dry and sour but finishes with a taste similar to biscuits wtih a sweet/tarty jam. The smell is so grassy and tarty, in a good way. jigglyjock (159), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 29, 2007 Pours a magnificent hazy candy-like orange/red with yeast floaters. Head is initially generous with a foamy, tan off-white, head that is mostly diminishing. Aroma is of sweat pineapple, peach, mango, candy sugar, and alcohol. Flavor is on the sweet side. Pineapple, mango, pine, are in the front of the taste followed by a dry alcohol warming. Palate is luxuriously velvety, almost syrupy, accompanied by a subtle but present tingly carbonation. Overall a big sweet alcoholic beer with interesting tropical notes and with every sip you feel a little more drunk. shp555 (1691), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
