| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 3, 2009 Sweet on the nose, more so than most ambers. Lots of caramel, toffee, and some fruity notes from the hops. Pours amber with little head. The flavor starts rather sweet, lots of malty caramel, this is followed by toasted malts, and more sweetness. As soon as you think this is interestingly too sweet for the style a nice bitter alpha bite comes through and lingers for a while. Interesting and tasty IMO. raphael (424), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 27, 2008 Purt near red, transparent, thin white head, strong floral hop & caramel aropmas. I’m not a red fan but this keeps the malt clean and the hops well-represemted. chokmah33 (118), San Luis Obispo, California, USA

Taste is sweet, watermelon, good hops kick in mid. Smooth texture, awesome dry finish.
Very pleasant to drink and very underrated. I really like this brewery, they have some unique and tasty brews. BeerPrince (1701), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

A little hoppy and unbalanced with not enough malt body. Bitter finish. ¾ (5012), Boulder, Colorado, USA

Clear red and bright orange color. Strange sour flavor of tea, chalky and stale asparagus, with some limes too. Very odd. Sour orange, with a foul husky grain flavor. Not good at all I must say. Smells grainy like Corona, or perhaps even like tequila. leitrim65 (398), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 14, 2005 Reddish - Amber color. Hops and fruit, mostly cherries in the aroma. Fruity, cherry like flavors with a good hit of hops. Well balanced and easy to drink. Oakes (8172), Beyond the Great Firewall, China

Fairly toasty maltiness, but with lively fruit notes and lots of American hops as well. A fun, flavourful and most importantly well-structured amber. Re-rate confirms this.
