2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle. Nougat brown body with a medium tan head. Aroma is disappointingly weak, with hints of ale yeast and raisins only. Taste is honey melon, caramel and hints of raspberry. Palate is quite watery, severely affecting the overall feel of this beer. An OK beer, but lacking anything that would put it anywhere near the big league.
