blklab2007 (533), Connecticut, USA Oct 3, 2007 bottle poured an amber in color with good initial carbination settling down with a thin head. smell is malts, caramel, spice, and is lightly sweet. taste is medium on the mouth feel, caramel malt on the tongue, and finishes slightly dry with a slight bitterness. decent beer, perhaps the style is not my favorite either. spector (906), Lancaster, Ohio, USA Feb 7, 2007 Swet malt in the aroma.Pours medium copper with a white head.Flavor is the same as the aroma.Mouthfeel is thin to medium with a sweet malt finish. moejuck (1111), Ohio, USA Feb 4, 2007 Light fruit and a definite sweet malt aroma come from the copper colored body. The palate is thin to medium. Sweet caramel malt makes up the majority of the flavor--and even though this is one dimensional--that one dimension is done well. hopdog (4552), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 4, 2006 12oz bottles acquired in trades with jpm74 & ppoitras (thanks!). Poured a medium and slightly hazy amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Initial whiffs gave me a strong caramel smell. I then picked up juicy apples and some toasted malts. Tastes of toasted malts, lighter caramel, toffee, and a lighter (well, lighter than the aromas) apple fruitiness. Caramel apples come to mind. I guess I’ll go against the majority as I actually liked this one. hopscotch (4460), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Oct 29, 2006 Bottle... Clear, light amber lager with a small, creamy, off-white head. Rich, toasted aroma with notes of caramel and nuts. The flavor is malty and rich, but crisp; moderately sweet, but also moderately bitter. Medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Mid-length, seared caramel, gently bitter finish. This one definitely improved as it warmed. Thank you jjpm74 for sending this one my way!
