| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/20 | Sep 12, 2009 Got this bottle a few months ago at Sam’s in Chicago; hasn’t been kept chilled. And perhaps it should have been. Think it’s gone bad as it has some definite sourness. Poured with a tan head that quickly subsided and no lace. Aroma is just plain malty beer. Color isn’t that great - hazy medium to dark amber. Flavor is like aroma but yeasty bitter plus the sour. Body is ok and so is carbonation. Can’t finish it tho.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 9, 2009 330ml bottle. Bready, lightly sweet, caramel aroma, very lightly fruity and spicy. Cloudy medium-dark red-orange color, head is fine and lasting. Flavor profile is nicely balanced between the caramel and sugary malt sweetness, background dried fruitiness, lightly spicy, herbal hop and moderate bitterness. Lingering caramel malt flavors late. Smoothly effervescent and thin on the palate with a light-medium body. Quite drinkable and a very good example of the style. thedm (3837), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Sep 5, 2009 This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of foamy fine to medium sized bubbles that were and left behind a transparent softly carbonated golden and thick foamy lacing. The aroma was malty and bready. The crisp mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start and at the finish hoppy aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of hops. travita (1970), Frisco, Texas, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 12, 2009 (330ml bottle) Pours an amber body with a small off-white head.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Aug 9, 2009 (330ml bottle thanks to bu11zeye) Pours a light translucent brown, good lacing. Nose is great, caramel, and sweet. Taste doesn’t follow the nose in fact it has almost no sweetness at all, but bready and toasted grains. Carbonation is the best thing here, but again no sweetness lingering on the palette.
