Can. Orange color, fading head. No specific aroma. Sweet, alcoholic, soapy, pefumed flavor. Short aftertaste. Not good.

badlizard (4348) - San Diego, California, USA - MAY 20, 2007
Tasted at Holiday Wine Cellar. Aroma caramel and barn yard funk with pronounced alcohol in the scent. Sweet, slick palate. Sweet honey taste with a lingering meade-like taste to the finish.

wetherel (1837) - Encinitas, California, USA - MAY 20, 2007
Tried at Holiday Wine Cellar Beer Tasting. A touch light struck, but it faded quickly. Otherwise, great smell of malt. Medium to fine lacing. Very drinkable. I seem to be rating it higher than others, but I love the maltiness in the flavor and aroma.

UselessGdTaste (365) - Long Beach, California, USA - MAY 13, 2007
Rather light. Great beer for refreshment. Brown sugar seems to be a key flavour.

fishingnet (1047) - Brandon, Florida, USA - MAY 8, 2007
Bottle. Pours a clear amber with a small but lasting white head that leaves minimal lacing. Aroma of sweet malt and light caramel. Flavor is much the same with a mild bitterness. Medium thin mouthfeel with a little alcohol bite and slight metalic after taste. A good beer but I probably wont buy it again.

bobaidan (433) - Southington, Connecticut, USA - MAY 3, 2007
Pours mohagony with a small head. Aroma is sweet and malty. Flavor is very the same with lots of sweet malt and dried fruit flavors, and a bit of a hop bitterness. The alcohol is very present in this beer. Finish is sweet and sticky. Not one of my favorites.

slimchill (936) - Austin, Texas, USA - APR 30, 2007
Bottle. Nose is estery, full of banana and apple notes behind yeasty sourness. Gorgeous beer. Fantastic lacing, beautiful active carbonation, a fine light amber color. Flavor is spot on for the style, but unfortunately not my favorite style nonetheless. It sits well on the palate and is enjoyable, though uncomplex.

lagomswedish (213) - Umeå, SWEDEN - APR 23, 2007
Bottle drunk somewhere in Duras. Nice 750ml corked bottle from which I poured a very attractive clear amber (no surprise there then) beer with a slightly banana-tinged head. Distinct smell of herbs and young apples. Taste was quite surprising, with an oddball funk quality, caramel and bags of spices. It was one of those beers that took me some time to decide whether I liked or not. It’s different alright......but I just don’t know.
