| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 23, 2007 Cloudy copper color with a small white head on top. Huge malty flavor and aroma. A mixture of breads, dried fruits, clove, and spices bring this beer together. A nice refreshing summer beer that was enjoyed with friends. wunderbier (1266), Tampere, Finland
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 22, 2007 Slightly hazy peach-gold hue with a frothy, just off-white head and champagne like carbonation. Big bready malts in the aroma along with peaches and other sugary fruits and soft herbal notes (cilantro and the like). White pepper as well. Taste is lightly honey at first with sweet fruits and a tangy acidity. Finishes somewhat dry and peppery with a tart apple aftertaste. Light texture with a slick mouthfeel and rapid carbonation. A dry spice taste builds with time. Still, a little underwhelming in the categories of malt/spice/fruits, I’d expect a BdG to be bold in at least one of those areas. cbeers21 (564), Miami, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 21, 2007 Copper colored ruby/amber bodied wth a small head. Sugary dried fruits, syrupy toffee malt notes are present with hints of apple cider and sugared apples. Wheaty blank finish, resembling malty syrup, apple, figs and prune. Falls a little flat in the finish, not bad but I craved more flavor. nightrider (373), encinitas, California, USA

| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 20, 2007 750 ml. brown Belgian style bottle. Corked & caged. Muffled pop when cork removed. Not as carbonated as Red Barn Ale. Poured out a hazy orange color, with a sticky tan colored head. Aromas are of sweet apples, peaches, strong honey smells as well.
Flavors are of fresh fruits, honey, slightly herbal, but well balanced throughout. Damn good beer overall. psbrewlvr (15), Palm Springs, California, USA
