Nov 4, 2005 2005 GABF Gold Medal... Poured an amber color with a thin, off white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus fruits, light earth, caramel malt, some rauch, and a bit of toffee as well. Taste of more caramel malt, earthy yeast, nuts, and low bitterness.

Jul 9, 2006 Sampled at manchester, ct location. Pours a slightly hazy medium to deep amber, light tan head. Aroma is a bit dirty- modest amounts of yeast in the way, bready, very sweet toffee and some maple syrup character. Definitely not as clean as it could have been. Flavor was very sweet- almost too sweet, sugary, not like the toasted and nutty sweet balance you get from uerige. Ok finish, but still a bit dirty, and not really hoppy in the finish. Too sweet.

Aug 13, 2006 Rich, red-bronze. Very clear. Sweetish cereal aroma. Grainy, medium tartness. Cereal, medium-light bittering. Medium-light body. Goes watery. A rather flaccid interpretation of a style that I’m usually inclined to be charitable towards. Nutty sweetness in the finish.
