Probiere (992), Iowa, USA May 2, 2007 Quite big and syrupy rich, with lots of honey, fizzy/tangy fruit notes, and cereal/toast flavors. Some interesting esters of possibly apple and spice, but mostly a big, sweet beer well balanced in the back end with a floral, Saaz-like bitterness and a dry finish with slightly sticky aftertaste. One of the better big beers I have had in quite a while.
gax33 (11), Minooka, Illinois, USA Sep 26, 2008 Nice hoppy taste without being too bitter. This would make for a great junkfood and ballgame beer - not terribly interesting but real easy to drink. rds (117), USA Sep 18, 2008 A cloudy golden stong ale with a wee white head, a very hoppy bouquet, and a slightly bitter finish. This 2007 model was very pleasing, with a nice clean taste. jeffwilliams11 (275), hooterville, Michigan, USA Sep 6, 2008 very tasty...nothing overly crazy to write about, just a damn tasty beer. would definately buy again. chicagodri (543), Chicago, Illinois, USA Aug 21, 2008 Bottle from 2006. Pours a hazy orange with an off white head. Pine and citrus hops aroma. Well balanced, the malt and citrus hops are pretty equal. I actually thought it was sort of thin...maybe I should I took it out of the cellar before. Was still a good beer though. Beerman6686 (780), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 9, 2008 Poured a golden color with a white head. Aroma was of some spices and not much more. Flavor was also a bit spicey but mainly bland and not too much else to say.
