Lots of hazel - nuttiness, with some chocolate and toffee, perfectly balanced with some yeasty frozen bananas rounding out the finish. Yum! erway (1002), Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 8, 2005 Pours a very deep syrupy brown with no head. Aroma is nutty, with chocolate and minor alcohol notes. This drinks very smooth for the amount of alcohol. Toffeeish and chocolaty. Med body, could be heavier. Finish is very smooth. Excellent except for a bit light in the body. Sham (1846), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 6, 2004 Light mahogany with light head and lively carbonation. Caramel, toffe, roast, and spicy hops in the nose. Caramel, toffee and roast again in the flavor. More roast and hops here though. Thick palate, chewy almost. Sweet malt finish. Nice and balanced.
