| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 11, 2007 First off, putting Donald Sutherland on the label is pure genius. The form fitting jacket is a little much though. The beer itself is interesting. It pours with little head and a fruity champagne aroma. I don’t know how this qualifies as beer, but I guess it does. However, it is the uniqueness that gets my attention. Given the ingredients, I would expect it to be much sweeter. I was pleasantly surprised how balanced out it was. The flavor was a little more carbonated than I expected. The aftertaste was pleasant as well. I thought this beer was quite good. I wouldn’t drink it every night, but it wouldn’t disappoint me either. JPDIPSO (4884), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 11, 2007 Light ruby umber color with a smallish off-white head with a hint of pink. Fruitiness in aroma of a malt liquor. Some corn and white grapes as well. Light caramel and biscuit in the front with a light berry topping in the middle. No real berry flavor stands out just a simple juice. ALcohol seems to waddle about quite a bit in this one. Some spiciness that I attribute to the alcohol in the finish. A thick linger with a mouthcoating sweetness, more like dextrose. A touch more refined than your average malt liquor, still simple, strong and far from a suggilate brew. unclemattie (2401), Georgia, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Jun 11, 2007 750ml Champagne bottle. Ruby red color. Aroma of fresh baked berry pie. Doughy, boysenberry, spices. Flavors of berries and rich malt Alcohol is hidden well. Medium bodied. Perfect PDer... argo0 (6884), Washington DC, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 11, 2007 (750ml bottle, bottled 2/12/07) Large beige head atop crystal clear red/amber body. Aroma is moderately sweet, blueberry/boysenberry, some blackberry. Taste is sweet, very berry, some alcohol, light peach, earthy/spicy. Medium-full body, moderately sticky. Not surprisingly, too big and too sweet for a single person to drink the bottle it’s sold in during an evening. Grandpa (325), Verona, New York, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 11, 2007 It poured a clear, reddish-brown with a big off-white head with a pale reddish tinge. It was light bodied, the berry flavor was blended into the brew they have avoided the sense of a fruit additive taste. It was sweet with a bit of a sour aftertaste, sour not a hop bitterness. the hops were not detectable. Pleasant, refreshing. Like a Belgian the high ABV was disguised, like a Belgian it left me with a gassy feeling. jimbowood (950), Athens, Georgia, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jun 10, 2007 Bottle. I’m beginning to expect the worst from DFH. I find their brews (other than WWS) less than spectacular w/ more hype than flavor. This brew is actually pretty good though. Pour is a ruby red. Really drinkable w/ a light, slightly fruity/caramel flavor.
