| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Nov 1, 2009 Bottle (in NZ) - thank you yalnikim. Pours a hazy brown with a filmy head. The nose is full of sour granny smith apples and caramel. A short sourness on the palate, red wine like tannins. Fruity - both citrus apple - with toffee. Dry all the way through. Challenging and enjoyable. Perfect for forgetting a tough marathon earlier in the day. polomagnifico (533), Saginaw, Michigan, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 24, 2009 Bottle. Aroma has notes of sour fruity heaven with some oak, spice, caramel, and apples. Medium amber hue with a nice white head that mostly diminished. Flavor was awesome! Sour fruity notes that finished barnyard, dusty and dry. Palate is medium bodied and lively. Fantastic brew that blew me away. Can’t believe I hadn’t rated it before. Delicious!!
