3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a translucent copper with a thin white head. The aroma is nothing special and is rather plain. The flavor starts off a little sweet but the bitterness from the hops comes in at the very end. Not what would come to mind as a winter brew. I thought it was average.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours a slightly hazed, tawny honey color with a tall lingering froth. Aromas of an English nature with herbed caramel. Full nectar with very little carbonation. A fat malt body with caramel, cirtus, and herbs. The finish is long and bitter sweet.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Apr. 2007 - Beer poured a pale light brown color, with nice head and a little lacing. Aroma of stinky feet, nuts and bread. Flavor was sweet malts, nuts and burnt bread. A nice grassy type hoppiness balanced it out. Okay, but not terrific.
