| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Sep 15, 2007 A Sim rate (on tap at the Flyng Saucer Memphis): Wheaty pils flavour with a similar aroma. Appearance is ok, but with great lace. That’s probably this beer’s most redeeming feature. It’s not that great. fordest (1954), Santee/San Diego, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 14, 2007 500 ml bottle. Golden copper color with a decent tight bubbled head. Aromas were very sweet and matly. Caramel, toffee, chocolate. Flavors fell off a bit with some more of the same, but a little less exciting than the aromas. Overall pretty good.

| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Sep 12, 2007 the beer is dark brown. the flavor is mainly of an artificial type of smoke. this flavor overrides the tase of the beer acting as a major distraction. the beer is watery in body and yet still flavorful. his does not appeal to me. it is a little bit sweetish with some kind of nutty malt perhaps peaty thing going on. never been a winner in my book. the quicker the finish the better. cgarvieuk (4171), Edinburgh, Scotland
