| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 19, 2006 Bottle courtesy of BrewDad! 2006 Vintage. Pours a deep copper with a slight haze about it. Sturdy tan foam on the surface. Nose is spicy, fruity, hoppy, floral, and has hints of toffee. Taste brings out sweet malts, fruit cake, spices (cinnamon, nutmeg), spicy hops, caramel, and chewy malts. Maybe even some pine notes to this. The body wants to be chewy but comes across a thinner. Creamy carbonation and a lingering spicy and hoppy bitterness. Finishes with more spicy hops, spices, caramel, light toffee and light citrus. brianprentiss (473), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 17, 2006 Another superb offering from Deschutes; I love these guys. Tastes less like a Fuller’s than most ESA’s, perhaps because of the Oregon water? It’s really gud! BuckeyeBoy (1654), Boise, Idaho, USA
