| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 18, 2008 Bottle from Binny’s Lakeview. Nose is nice and spicy hops, some white fruits and yeast. Pours a nice gold with a little cloudiness. Taste is quite bitter and obviously very well hopped. Biscuits and hops, finishes quite dry and with no regrets. Could make this an everyday drinker. Very nice. hombrepalo (763), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 18, 2008 Tasting @ Binnys. Slightly hazy amber, very nice rocky white foam, less than spectacular retention, very nice lacing. Aroma is a little bit of pear, with some musty yeast and hop notes. Flavor is bone dry, not in good way, over the top bitterness and not very much in the malt category at all. The taste is sweet, tart and dry. I get sweet malts with hints of wheat as well as tart tones of lemon and a hint of astringency. Not what I expected. Theis (3651), Denmark

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 22, 2008 Completely opaque, with sheets of layered lacing down the side as the beer drains. Almost cardboard in color, with a lively orange tint, kind of like creamy peanut butter, and quite unlike anything I’ve ever seen in a beer before. Yeasty, sweet pear aroma. Sweet apple flavor, with a bitter/sour aftertaste of earthy grains. Yummy.
