| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 5, 2008 Batch #84. Damn pleasant beer. I really can’t fault Rob on his brewing, and Allagash is starting to be my favorite American brewer. Beautiful color, pours with the perfect small bubbled head, 3-4 cm cream-white head. You can taste a sweet cherry-like yeast, and little pear on the nose. Apple/Pear on the tongue, just the right balance of sweet and fizz, and a little tang on the back of the throat. Easily one of the best American beers of the last 5 years. (Bottle Pour 1/2/2007) holdenn (1440), Chicago, Illinois, USA

Citrus and grain nose. Not very distinct. Citrus, pear, really fruity. Earthy, tangy, alcohol. Hop presence. Finishes dry with the alcohol and earthy notes.
