Bottle, poured a dirty amber color with an off white head. Aroma of caramel, bread, fruit and yeast. Some sweetness. Flavor was really sweet with a good dose of caramel and fruit. Kind of gross in some ways. Disappointing.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 Zymurgeist2 (625) - Redwood City, California, USA - JAN 15, 2010
UPDATED: APR 7, 2013 Score increased on a re-rate - maybe the first bottle was bad. Out of a 12 ounce bottle in a pint glass. Pours a chestnut brown with a tan head that lingers on the side of the glass.
The aroma is very surprising with massive caramel grains that seem a little stale. I did not expect this.
Taste is unlike an amber, but lots of sweet malt and an interesting tingly finish. Seems to have aspects of a sour after the mid-palate. I don’t know what to make of this.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 hayduke (2933) - Eureka, California, USA - DEC 26, 2009
This 12 oz bottle from a six pack poured a dark amber with a good robust off-white head and light lacing rings. The nose is stronly of caramel malts with some light floral hops in the background. Medium body and mouthfeel. The flavor shows mostly the malts but there are plenty of hops to round it off. The finish is dry. Good amber.
