3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Reid (1436) - Salem,Oregon, Oregon, USA - NOV 11, 2003
Its sad this brewery is no more..saw this beer at the cheapo grocery outlet.$2.99 a sixer..thought I would give it a go.
Very very attractive looking beer when poured from the brown 12 oz bottle deep red almost garnet colour when held to the light..nice creamy off white head.
Desp[ute sitting for at least a month on the floor , unrefridergated of some forlorn grocery store the aroma was very nice mostly malts but no off smells.
The tatse also is very nice..fruity and malty..with a semi-dry finish.
Very nice feeling in the mouth.
A most drinkable Amber..its sad this brewery is defunct..if this is anything to go by they made pretty good beer.

Great malty, bready, tea aroma. Dark amber color, almost like a brown ale. Full flavor...malty sweetness throughout.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 KingPinHead (390) - Des Moines, Washington, USA - AUG 5, 2002
Wonderful full malty aroma with a touch of yeastiness...Color a deep amber with good healthy head...Flavor also features a fairly sweet malt base, but hops are in full support, at least initially. Unfortunately, the finish is relatively tame--the initial robustness fades into a smooth but bland farewell. Still, quite good...I’ll certainly give it another hoist in the future.

Very unique beer. Smells of toffee, swiss cheese, and buttery popcorn. Good to smell but not to taste. Burgundy brownish color with little head.

Pours a deep reddish color. Nice head. I wasn't expecting much of this beer but it's actually pretty good. Some fruit in the taste perhaps?? Some malt in the aroma. Definitely worth a try!
3.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 Aurelius (3146) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - SEP 17, 2002
Excellent zippy aroma, with a lot of amber malt character. A fruit-powdery and woody, but tame flavor. Thin palate.

Firm hops, nice malty flavor. There is a strong buttery-diacetyl flavor that is pervasive but not particularly unpleasant, this tastes to me very much like a scottish ale.
