| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 11, 2008 A cloudy looking beer that pours a huge head! Only head I’ve seen bigger is that of a Boddington’s. This has an easily detected citrus, almost melon taste to it. Definitely something different from what I’m used to. They served it with a lemon, no need for that. I discarded that quickly. It was very expensive, so I probably won’t get it again Gmoney (259), ManchVegas, New Hampshire, USA
