| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | May 10, 2005 Snow white head, hazy golden body. Fruity aroma mostly orange and citrus, sharp and fresh. Notes of yeast. Thin flavor, some tart citrus notes with hay hints. Not bad, just not very interesting and very thin bodied. lachesis (759), St Idesbald, Belgium
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 8, 2005 Hazy warm-orange color with a nice light colored creamy head. Fine cookie aroma’s with fruity hints like stonefruits, citrus, and confit d’orange. This beer has a lively taste with a cake like mouthfeel. Also hints of fruit cake in the afthertaste. Overall impression, a little flat but smooth beer. chriso (4796), London, Greater London, England
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Apr 24, 2005 The first thing I noted about this beer was the lack of hop presence. That was before I realised it was a recreation of a gruit beer and didn’t have any hops. The herbs used in place of provided an interesting alternative, but I didn’t find them assertive enough. Vaguely medicinal. Overall a bit dull, thin and watery. Extra marks for interest though. Bottled. January 2005.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 3, 2005 Poured a medium, hazy orange color with a larger sized white head. Lots of small particles. Aromas of spices, bananas, and lemons. Lighter tastes (not as strong as the smell would have led me to believe). Fizzy body that also came across as flat and boring (does that make any sense). bitter (1137), Henderson, Nevada, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 28, 2005 Pepper, dandelion, hint of mint (esp. in the flavor). Hazy yellow brown with irregular head. Vinegar flavor, clove, lemon drop. I can understanding someone saying there is honey, too. Lemon poppyseed pound cake. It suggests a sweet finish. Interesting in its complexity. Herbal tea quality.
