| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Feb 20, 2005 I rather enjoyed the swettness, could have used a bit more hops to balance. There was some caramel and citris. Not a shining example of the style, but ok. Eyedrinkale (3209), Astoria, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 22, 2005 One of the few dissapointing beers I’ve had by Weyerbacher. This stuff is just too damn sweet. Molasses, caramel and sticky sweet malts abound. Had some hops but I’d like a different hop varietal in this. OldGrowth (1426), North Carolina, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 15, 2004 10.29.04 12oz bottle. Pretty beer glows with copper, amber, and golden coors and a fluffy, foamy head. Herbal and grassy aromas on the wane, hints of cardboard. Bready malt is mostly sweet with more herbal hints and a sharp, weedy finish with undertones of appleskin; growing vegetal as it warms. wulfhere (217), Billings, Montana, USA

Pours a nice golden-copper color with a big head that sticks around for a good long time, leave sheets of lace literally draped down the sides of the glass! Beautiful! The nose is mild, almost nothing--some roasted malt, maybe a bit of butterscotch. The taste is malt first, with apples and almonds, a hint of caramel and toffee--with just a smidge of hop bittering in the finish and on the back of the tongue.
Unfortunately, there is also a hint of cabbage and just a little Band-aid to the flavor as well.
Overall a good beer with a gorgeous color and head. Lubiere (4539), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Dec 12, 2004 Deep golden beer with a moka head. Cave mushroom aroma. Rather bizarre earthy taste and msuty notes. Carboardy taste. Medium bodied. (October 2004). Hopistotle420 (1178), Amherst, Massachusetts, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 5, 2004 Copperish/amber hue, with a small beige head. Malty grain nose. Sweet, steady carbonation, nicely balanced with a spicy hopped up finish. Not bad at all.
