| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 17, 2008 Bottled, BB 3/18/09. Poured clear, brilliant reddish-tea with a short-ish cap of beige head. The aroma picked up toasted caramel, nutty notes, and chocolate.. dry with a fresh herbal accent.. lovely! The flavor had a toasty impression with sweeter bread, aged caramel, and cola.. the back-end had brighter grassy and herbal bitterness that carried through the dry finish. The body was a bit lighter than expected and could’ve used more heft across the middle.. otherwise very well balanced with a memorable, dry finish. I could drink a whole lot of this. bermod (118), Lappeenranta, Finland
