| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 25, 2005 Slightly haze-ish orange-amber beer; very carbonated to huge amberish tinted head. Very perfumed nose - nearly aftershave-like (NO - it ain’t me), (roasted) malt, chaff, summer grain, a haystack - but also the maish dregs. Quite hoppy, but not bitter taste, European hops with malty underbuild, bit leafy flavours. Medium bodied, "cobwebs" as you say. After reflexion, this strange name seems to stand for Achilles’ amber try. Far from bad.

Mostly bubblegum on the nose, which i don’t really mind as it is complemented by hints of a spicy yeastiness. The flavor on the other hand is a huge let down. kind of a stale flavor. not really sure what’s going on but whatever it is i really don’t care for it. Dickinsonbeer (4082), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA
