3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
The aroma is nothing to write home about. Appearance is that of a clear amber beer. Flavor is really nice, with a palate that goes from sweetness to soury and a really bitter hoppy finish. Enjoyable!

2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
250ml bottle
6.5% ABV
I tried this beer on April 30, 2009 at "Smokeless Joe’s" in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The beered poured a translucent golden-brown with a thin white head. The aroma was sweet malt, some grain, and some citrusy notes. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with medium carbonation. The flavour was grainy malt, some sweet sugary hints, and a nice bitter finish.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
330 ml bottle from Belgium Beers, Antwerp. A thick greyish head resting on a golden brown colored body. Sugary aroma; grains, caramel and sweet bread. Very sweet-flavored with both a fruity and malty sweetness. Modest bitterness. Sticky texture. Dries up a bit in the finish. Three tads too sweet, not a favorite.
2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle, thx to OleR. It pours a golden color with some carbonation, and a big, creamy, off-white head. Some butterscotch on the nose, with caramel, some grains and a rather unpleasant sweetish, puke-like scent. Sweet, malty flavor with roasted malts and some butterscotch. Drier towards finish. Much much fruityness going on. Some hoppy bitterness. Dry, full-bodied. Quite bitter finish with plenty of residual sugars. A strange beer. The aroma isn’t interesting at all, but the flavor is quite all right. Can’t see me returning to this one. (090312)
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
A dark amber ale with a thick light moka head. A light malty aroma with caramel and light fruity esters. In mouth, a Belgian vienna, a bit nutty, with light oxidation and hops. So-so. BB 26-06-10. Bottle at Smokeless Joes, March 23, 2009.
