| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 4, 2008 Had high hopes for this, its a sweet looking bottle. Looked alot lighter than expected, a muddy brown. Too sweet and carbonated for me. Might have a place with some good food but for normal drinking purposes there is a little too much going on. hombrepalo (762), Chicago, Illinois, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 1, 2008 75cl bottle. Pours amber/orange with a beige head. Smells of caramel and bread and dough. Taste is mildly sweet and slightly carbonated. Not a bad brew, but there are definately better quads that are widely availbable. ajm (917), Los Angeles, California, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 30, 2008 Maybe I will have it again, because I really did not see the appeal. An underwhelming taste - mildly yeasty... mild everything really. A forgettable drink with no finish and no lasting notes. riversideAK (2670), Shoreline, Washington, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 18, 2008 Rated in Los Angeles while on a SCTE ET conference. Rated in a hotel bar glass. Pours a cloudy brown / rust color, somewhat opaque with a very thin bust present head. Aroma is slightly sour, slightly sweet, hints of orange peel but almost has a lambic like tartness. Flavor is on the malty / bread like yeasty side, very little sweetness, very little hoppiness.
