Sep 21, 2007 Bottle. Pours a bubbly orange with a thin head. Aroma is of apples and honey. Taste is crisp, fruity, similar to that of apple cider. Thick on the tongue and holds the flavor. This beer’s one redeeming quality is its high alcohol content.

Sep 2, 2007 Bottles from a seemingly dusty six pack from Shoreline Beverage (Huntington, NY). I’m comparing two different bottles here. Both poured a clear amber color with a frothy off-white head. However, the first bottle had a lot of big clumsy bubbles, while the second had basically no bubbles and a lot of particles/floaties. Aroma for both was mostly toffee malts, with some fruity, almost sweet plummy esters. Flavor very malty with some earthiness in the back, but with minimal hops ("Blech" for me, personally). For further disparity, the makeup of the first bottle was overly fizzy (like cream soda) while the second bottle was flat and watery. Whatever the bottle, neither could sustain an otherwise not-all-that-terrible malt/ester flavor profile, even with the absense of my much craved hops. Overall, not such a good blind choice for me.

Aug 29, 2007 Nice hoppy boquet, deep golden color with a white head, malty flavor followed by some hop biterness. Nothing special

Aug 25, 2007 Poured from bottle. This one surprised me. Malty, nutty, swampy aroma. Flavor has hops up front, with roasted malt in the aftertaste. Creamy sweet feel. Slight bit of alcohol in flavor and pineapple as well. Finished nicely. Well done.

Aug 24, 2007 I really quite liked this. It’s by no means great but it’s definitely drinkable. Pours a burnt orange color with little head. Aroma of light roasted malt, bread dough and a faint hop linger. Much sweeter than I expected but not in a bad way. Big caramel blended with rock candy followed by a malty finish. Very slight hop profile, but barely noticeable. Overall I was quite surprised by this brew.

Aug 21, 2007 bottle - Pours light amber with a medium sized head. The aroma is lightly roasted malts with a touch of citrus. The flavor is pretty sweet with a little bit of hops in the background and some alcohol flavor coming through. The body is somewhat thinner than I would have liked though what we end up with is an easy drinking beer for the alcohol content. Decent.

Aug 18, 2007 The last in a trade from Crizay. Copper color with no head. Caramel aroma. The taste is very simple, just a little English hop and slight malt sweetness to balance each other out.

Aug 15, 2007 thanks Badgerben! Light carmel color with a faint malty nose and a sweet cereal grain flavor.
