| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Dec 12, 2003 Copper hue with small off-white head. The aroma hinted of roasted malt, caramel, toffee, and light aromatics. The taste is sweet and caramel notes come to the forefront. Grassy hops and minor fruit undertones. Lively mouthfeel with noticeable alcohol burn midway through tasting. The beer is confusing in it's delivery, unrefined.
