250 ml bottle 13% - Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. Very nice spotty lacing. Has a earthy, yeasty aroma. Flavor is full of esters. Alcohol is slightly noticable. Medium body. Decent beer.

marcus (3763) - Sacramento, California, USA - MAY 4, 2011
Bottle from Arden BevMo. Pours clear golden with a decent off-white head and a fruity aroma. There is a sticky sweet malt flavor with a severe alcohol finish. Too much sugar in this one.

Cornfield (5239) - Oak Forest, Illinois, USA - SEP 10, 2004
Nice amber color, little carbonation, and the thin head collapsed almost immediatedly. The aroma and taste are both sweet and malty, but not offensively so. It’s a thick, syrupy drink that ends on a sour note. But that’s not so bad. And at 13% abv, the alcohol presence was minimal. Tasty drink.

thornecb (2958) - Marblehead, Massachusetts, USA - OCT 29, 2006
Bottle say 13%. Pours bright amber into a snifter. Tan head quickly subsides leaving steady lacing. Sour alcohol aromas. Upfront sticky bubblegum with a cloying sugar alcohol finish.

ogglethorp (915) - Ohio, USA - JUN 28, 2007
Bottle. Pours hazy copper color with minimal beige colored head. Aoma is alcohol, fruit, sweet malts. Flavor is huge kick of alcohol, sweet malts, caramel, dried fruit. Palate is medium, mildly carbonated, finishes sweet and warm. I find the initial kick of alcohol to be not so pleasant, but fades throughout the finish. Nothing special.

emacgee (2844) - Carrboro, North Carolina, USA - APR 12, 2010
Durhambeer brought this one out. Pours straw gold with a one finger frothy sandstone head. Nose is sweet, bready, some hay, mild age/skunk, alcohol. Flavor is sharp and sweet, alcohol for sure, wet hay, bready malt. Palate is sharp and alcoholic.
