daboskabouter (1469), Fergus, Ontario, Canada Oct 22, 2006 Bright copper with little head. The nose reminded me of a barley wine with hints of sweet malt and brown sugar, alcohol, candy and fruit. The body is spritzy with a light hop bitterness and a touch of malt. Too sweet, not very drinkable.
lumpsowers (87), Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA Sep 30, 2008 Hoppy and bitter, highly carbonated, aftertaste is slightly spicy. Some raisin? gwpom (199), Akron, New York, USA Sep 27, 2008 12 oz bottle from variety pack. Haven’t seen this NY brew around before, so tried the variety pack. I went with the strong ale first... amber color, little to no head, smooth and strong. Not bad at all. WesKBob (161), Bethany, Oklahoma, USA Sep 21, 2008 Pours a hazy orange color with thin white head. Very little aroma, with maybe a hint of fruitiness. Flavor is equally nondescript--some light citrus and hop flavors, but nothing overpowering. Watery mouthfeel with no real bite. Would be a good lawnmower beer, but it’s really just kind of there. Maverick34 (480), New York, USA Sep 16, 2008 Bottled. Pretty damned flavorful, caramel malts hops etc. Not bad, a bit on the heavy side. SuperDave70 (822), Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA Sep 9, 2008 Clear amber pour with a medim foamy head that lasts a while. Roasty caramel malt and citrus hops in the aroma and flavor. A bit more sweetness than bitterness, but still pretty well balanced. Not bad.
