| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 12, 2009 Pours an orangish amber with a lot of hoppy aroma. Flavor is rich malts with plenty of hops to balance it out. Not what I was expecting from a string cream ale, but good. tokyogoat (507), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 7, 2009 Pours a surprising amber/copper color with a good amount of carbonation.
Very bitter with hops, with some syrupy malt. Not that well balanced.
This isnt a bad beer, but it also wasnt what I was planning on drinking.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 10, 2009 Crushed with Jakebra. Plenty of hops and malt in good balance. Some minimal poop makes it slightly unpleasant, but overall a decent brew. On par and difficult to differentiate between other Lagunitas strong ales. sjolles85 (80), Tampa, Florida, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Mar 31, 2009 Shared with Steve. They call it a strong ale but it really isnt. More hoppy than a strong ale, more like an APA or IPA. However I did like the creamy texture on the palate. finol (486), Nacka (Stockholm), Sweden

Slightly hazy, medium size yellowish head. Citrusy hoppy aroma but it tastes more of german hops.
I would have labled it a APA.
