COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Allagash Grand Cru is deep golden in color, and has a firm yet refined malty palate. Taste and aroma have suggestions of smoke and licorice, with subtle hints of fruit and spice. An excellent beer to enjoy during the cooler seasons.

guzzler67 (1373) - Hanover, Maryland, USA - APR 16, 2007
Cloudy, amber/gold appearance with a medium size, off white head and modest lacing. Yeasty, spicy aroma along with some soft fruitiness. Taste is moderately sweet, malty, spicy, with only a slight acknowledgement of hops. Medium-to-full bodied, affably carbonated mouthfeel. Bitter, peppery, long lasting finish.

padrefan98 (854) - (San Diego) Santee, California, USA - APR 15, 2007
750 ml bottle. Pours a murky golden red. Huge head that dissapated quickly. Spices and apple in taste. Very good.

fordest (1954) - Santee/San Diego, California, USA - APR 15, 2007
750 ml bottle. Aromas are a bit sour and maybe a touch of skunk. A bit of cherry maybe. Hazy reddish orange with a really nice foamy head that left decent lacing. Flavors were better with a nice maltiness that had some spice to it. Some alcohol flavor as well. Not too bad.

marcus (3776) - Sacramento, California, USA - APR 15, 2007
Batch 14. This hazy orange ale poured with a fluffy off-white head, eliciting a malty aroma. There is a sweet fruity malt flavor with some herbal elements and a short bitter hop finish, making for a very pleasant brew.

zootfinster (202) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - APR 11, 2007
A nice golden hazy pour. Malty fruity aroma and flavor. Feels nice in the mouth and leaves a really nice aftertaste

Stine (1398) - St. Paul, Minnesota, USA - APR 7, 2007
UPDATED: DEC 30, 2007 The pour is hazy and apricot orange, which always seems to be a promising color. Grass and yeast aroma. Hint of vanilla. Crisp, slightly vegetal flavor of onion and garlic; dank and sour lemon with some acetic acidity. It really is quite pleasant, though, with a warming but refreshing strong lager quality throughout.

trokini (1027) - San Diego, California, USA - APR 2, 2007
Orange-gold pour with some haze and a big white head. Aroma of spice, clove, and yeast. Taste is corriander, clove, and sugar, with a lot of apricot. Good malt and yeast backbone. Great balance Very light mouthfeel, but compliments the variety of flavors.

hopscotch (7289) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - MAR 27, 2007
Bottle... This beer rocks!... Hazy, deep amber ale with a mid-sized, creamy, off-white head. Good retention. Nutty, spicy nose with clove and smoke phenols. Citrus fruit hops; fuzzy fruit esters. Sweet, spicy flavor with blasts of coriander and caramel and a suggestion of hops without any real bitterness. Almost full-bodied with a sticky mouthfeel and medium carbonation. Lengthy, mildly sweet, warming finish.
