3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 LinusStick (2386) - Moon Twp, suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - FEB 4, 2007
This beer brings me back to the days of riding on a float with the Krewe of Tucks during Mardi Gras. That was a 7 year tradition and one sip of this brings me back. Beautiful amber color with a 2 finger head that stays the distance. The taste was caramel/malt with little to no hoppiness. All I need is to put on some beads, grab a bottle of this and relieve my wild years!
2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 morrdt (646) - Dirty Mo’, North Carolina, USA - JAN 29, 2007
Bottle from Total Wine. Poured an amber color with a light white head. Taste was a bit bitter and I thought the hops and malts didn’t match up very well. Maybe my bottle was skunked.
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 13/20 desurfer (1154) - Annapolis, Maryland, USA - JAN 27, 2007
Served on draft in a plastic cup on Rue Bourbon. Nice. Dark-ish amber body with little head. Aroma is bready and sweet. Flavor is smooth and mild, with a bit of spicy hops rounded out with lots of doughy maltiness. Palate is smooth with less than average carbonation. Pretty decent beer.
2.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 CliffInTexas (6) - College Station, Texas, USA - JAN 26, 2007 does not count
I first tried this many years ago while visiting my friend in New Orleans. I remember this being better on draft back then compared to what i can buy at the store now.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 tjthresh (1840) - Greenfield, Indiana, USA - JAN 23, 2007
Pours a brilliantly clear amber with a froathy white head. Some caramel and toasted malt aroma with a punch of noble type hop aroma. Flavor is nice. Not special. Not offensive. A nice drinking beer. A touch more on the toasted side than caramel, but neither are really all that upfront. Thin palate. Better than swill, but not great.

Attractive amber color. Not much of a head or lacing (bottle). Just a regular Amber beer, nothing great or not so great about this brew.
