| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Nov 2, 2009 Pours clear amber/brown with a thin white head that quickly dissipates. A very faint aroma of malt, nothing distinctive. The taste is very dry with a slightly off-putting burnt character. Watery with a bitter background, but no aftertaste to speak of. Harmless and uninspiring beer.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 11, 2009 Not bad. Guess I’ve always thought of this brew more as a nut brown as opposed to a kolsch or altbier. Whatever, guess I was wrong. Nice palate. Good mouth feel. Not exactly complex or earth shattering. A bit too heavy for a good session beer. This one doesn’t miss the mark, but doesn’t really stand out either. fonefan (11866), VestJylland, Denmark

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 4, 2009 Bottled during the 4th week of August.
Appearance: Pours out a near clear, humble-looking, dark brown body with a thin, ivory-hued head.
Smell: Nutty, earthy maltiness in the aroma with notes of cocoa and ripened fruits, as well as some spicy hop accents.
Taste: The expected brown maltiness with its nuttiness, bread crust hints, and taste of mild cocoa powder. Fairly fruity throughout. Mild hop character with just a bit of spiciness and low level bitterness for balance. Further earthy nuttiness on the back end with that ever persistent fruitiness. Finishes relatively dry.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Soft mouthfeel.
Drinkability: A pleasant, easy-drinking brew from good ole Yazoo out of Nashville. I should, the Good Lord willing, have no trouble clearing through the remainder of the six-pack. phaleslu (557), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 21, 2009 Draft at the brewery, part of a sampler. Pours clear brown with a quickly vanishing small off-white head. Aroma is roasted malt, toast, caramel. Flavor is really roasty, with caramel malt and hops. I’m kind of surprised not more people had the same impression I did, that there is just a massive roast quality to this. Light bodied, thin consistency, and a quick dry finish.
