2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle: Poured a rusty copper with out a head. The aroma was sour and skunky fruit. Taste was oxidated, flat with a bit of caramel. I believe this bottle to be infected, but the best by date was Nov 08.

Bottled, alc. 8% (BB 10/2005)
Hazy orange, decent off-white creamy head. Sweet lemony yeasty nose (strawberry, lime). Very acidy in the start. Citrusy bitter with added sugar which makes this unfortunately to sweet.

Dusty, somewhat acidic aroma with apple. Fat, buttery flavor, acidic with apple. A hint of vinegar, dusty, orange. A hint of sweet wood. Amateuristically brewed beer, far away from perfection.

This beer has a dark yellow body - hue apperance and a fine white scum collar. I have drunk the beer from the bottle and it had a medium carbonic acid. The initial flavor taste is bitter.
