| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 3, 2005 Had the old, blue labeled, "Jubel" version, bottle at Julios Spring Beer Fest, 4/2/05. Copper-reddish body, with some fiery reddish-orange hues and some light mahogany browns and a good sized, yellow beige head, slight retention. Aroma of sweet caramel and lightly sour yeast, with honey, herbs and light spices (cinnamon and anise). A profound earthy/grainy/breadiness as well. Malted wheat, sweet candied orange, thick, medium body, with not much wateriness. Earthiness on the finish, with plenty of dry breadiness and light alcohol warmth. badgerben (3610), Blaine, Minnesota, USA

The flavor is full of rich malts and more wheat with some spice. Damn, I thought this was really quite good! ChrisPants (317), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Feb 2, 2005 Blue label swing-top. Malty aroma, middling head retention, watery palate. Flavors somewhat metallic, leaning toward aluminum citrus. Not offensive, but not a big winner for me. JasonG (701), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 20, 2005 The bottle I had was a painted ceramic pint jug, with the phrase "happy easter" in several languages on it. It said "jubelfest" on it, but apparrently it is an alias for this brew (even though the pictures look totally different). If i’ve got the wrong listing, beermail me and I’ll change it.
Ruby red color, slightly cloudy, smallish tan head. Aroma is malty, sweet, lots of caramel. Flavor is malty, slightly smokey, with caramel, honey, noticable carbonation. A little darker and richer than some of the altbiers that I have had in the past.

Dry, Musty Malts on The Tongue..Sweet..But Dry. Not a Bad Dunkel..But I Can Think of Others I’d Reach for First.
