| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Nov 24, 2007 Pours brown and quite fizzy but with little head formation. Aroma is sweet with some sour notes coming at the edges. Fruity. Flavor is a little thin but has some nice sweetness, caramel, and fruit notes of apples and plums. Carbonation has all but disappeared within minutes leaving the palate quite lacking. Lowe1983 (1029), Fairborn, Ohio, USA

Aroma is of fruits, caramel malts, and a slight hint of some hops. Flavor is sweet with the fruits and carmel malts at first. Finishes with some oak flavor, a little bit of hops, and just a touch of some alcohol warming. Not was I was expecting, but not too bad either. fattibobatti (246), Tallahassee, Florida, USA

Pours a dar red with a thin tan head and little evident carbonation. The nose is very fruity and somewhat hoppy, with almost no notes of spruce or pine. The taste and palate are also very fruity.. not what i was expecting at all. cgarvieuk (4171), Edinburgh, Scotland
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 12, 2007 Bottle at home ... its been a while since ive had this, so an interesting revisit. Nice red copper colour ... sweet spuce , not pine like some american hops little yeast nose ... Quite rich with a slight overcarbonation mouth feel. Sweet woody resins, good fruit base little caramel, subtle flavour hidden by the carbonation. Much nicer than i remember this. surffisher (195), Raleigh, North Carolina, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 6, 2007 330 ml bottle, best before June 2008. Pours cloudy amber (relatively clear after it settles out), with lots of suspended sediment. Modest head does not last. The aroma is sweet and candy-like with lots of malt and fresh flowery/twiggy smells along with light woody notes when it warms. Flavor is quite unusual and somewhat delicate; short and sweet upfront, with peaty notes and a scotch-like alcohol character and a lingering dry, piney finish. Mouthfeel is medium full and smooth, with moderate carbonation. Tasty and unique. I’ll definitely get this one again for a rare treat.
