3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 frylock (1084) - Buffalo, USA - OCT 9, 2004
Dark amber color with a thin white head. Aroma of malts, brown sugar, and maple. Malts, some light rasin, and maple all come through. Well balanced by some slightly spicy hops. Not bad.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 RyanK (69) - Rhode Island, USA - MAY 30, 2012
Brew pours a light, clear and watery copper, it has a large white foam head that is quick to dissipate. Smells strongly like dough, yeast and some hops. Has light hops, good carbonation, and is actually not so watery on the palate. Carmel malt is pretty weak and so are the hops, not much flavor just a good ale for drinking in any season. Finishes a little bitter nothing special but not bad
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 BeebopToledo (4) - - MAY 27, 2012 does not count
Poured from a 12oz bottle. Slight head (which I personally find appealing) and very coppery color. More malty than hoppy, though a hoppy presence is noticed at the finish. A very full bodied mouthfeel. slightly smoky, but toast, coffee, nutty flavors are present.
Not a bad beer.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 gunnar (2644) - Sandnes, NORWAY - MAY 17, 2012
Bottle from Ølkonsortiet. Pours deep copper with a moderate sized off-white head.Aroma is strong malty, bread and caramel and some nice piney and herbal hops. Taste is piney hoppy, very well balanced maltyness, chocolate and caramel. Low carbonation, filling mouthfeel, a good beer indeed.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 Scipio (189) - Vernon Hills, Illinois, USA - MAY 11, 2012
Pours a red with a thin white head. Aroma has a floral feeling, with some malty undertones. Has some fruits in there as well. To me, strawberry and orange. But it is all very subtle. The taste contains these fruits and citrus, but on the end has a bit of a nutty flavor. Well balanced beer all around. I tried this several years ago and was disgusted. I was genuinely surprised and happy with this today.

Fairly disappointed in this beer. Was excited to try and it is enjoyable to an extent. Good color and aroma. Not much else to say. Will probably never buy again.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Darwenus (98) - Virginia, USA - MAY 7, 2012
Copper colored (duh) and not much head to speak of. The aroma is slight, the flavor is slightly bitter and thin. Citrus up front, a little bit of ginger, then a big, IPA-like hoppy finish. Not bad, but not for me.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 andyhwcinc (929) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - MAY 6, 2012
Purchased at Armanetti’s in Chicago, IL; enjoyed on a nice Sunday night after a 4 mile run while watching Game of Thrones. Appearance is basically copper brown, pretty clear, rich white head upon first pour. Aroma is sweet and caramel malty. Taste is just pure caramel malt, slightly sweet, the finish is somewhat dry which is unique for the style. Lagunitas makes better beers, but that’s not to say that this one is bad. It’s ok.

Pours copper with small to no head. Smells floral. Taste of sweet caramel malts with citrus hops and a little pepper or spice. Med-light bodied. Little carbonation. After taste is dry but not bitter. Not to interesting, but a good brew.
