sayravai (4524) - Helsinki, FINLAND - JAN 20, 2004
UPDATED: DEC 24, 2006 (Bottled) Very hazy reddish amber color with a small, slightly lacy head. Sourish toffee aroma with some vinous feel. Balanced, but a bit dull. Sourish-grainy, toffee-malty, peppery, pretty dry flavor with smooth hops in the background. Medium-bodied, dryish palate with medium carbonation. A well-made and balanced, very basic brew with nothing to remember in good or bad. Should make a nice session beer. (Bottled, rated May 17, 2004, was 6-3-6-3-12=3.0) Nice, deep amber color with a small and diminishing head. Hoppy, a bit yeasty and pepper-spicy, bitter-like aroma. Bitter, dry and peppery flavor, that fades very fast. Light to medium-bodied, dry palate. Quite characterless, below average ale (in the Belgian scale).

Tmoney99 (6889) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - MAY 8, 2007
Bottle from River’s Bend. Poured clear dark amber with a moderate frothy off-white head that lasted with good lacing. Moderate yeasty fruity aroma. Medium body. Medium complex tart citrus flavor with a medium tart citrus finish of moderate duration. Intereting brew.

yalnikim (800) - Wellington, NEW ZEALAND - FEB 26, 2008
Tasted 25/02/2008. 25cl bottle from Rumble’s, Wellington. Pours amber, as per the label description. Bright, with a lacy diminishing white head. Aroma is very reminiscent of a Vienna malt, biscuity, vogel’s grainy bread, toasted sweet buns. A little floral hop and some orange. Unfortunately this one is also showing some oxidised notes. Sweet bready malt in the mouth, with a mild herbal hop finish. Pretty simple. A very faint whiff of spice on the palate - or is that just the vietnamese coleslaw. Goodish, though a fair bit past its best.

gilvanblight (544) - Windsor, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 4, 2005
Tin creamy head. Very thirst quenching, mutted subtle flavor that is not very deep. Warm aftertaste. No overpowering flavor.
