3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Medium sized off-white fizzy head that mostly diminished, very little lacing, carbonation noted, transparent, and a golden hue. The nose was malt, some hops, caramel, sugary, sweet, and bready. The same for the flavor with some hops as the beer warmed up. Smooth, somewhat thin mouthfeel and light in body. An easy drinking beer and almost too easy to drink due to the smooth flavor. This was an uncomplicated beer, but I did not find anything "speciale" about it.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle @ Subzero - This was much more enjoyable than other Petrus beers that I have had in the past. The aroma is sweet and and yeasty, with some dark candi sugar notes, and a cookie dough maltiness. Extremely lively mouthfeel. Not bad, not great, but much better than what I have come to expect.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pour is a amber with a large white head. Aroma is candi sugar with some dark fruit and figs. Flavor is earthy malts with some spice and sugar. Not a mind blowing beer here but something that is tasty and enjoyable.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
UPDATED: JAN 2, 2009 Bottled at Monks Café, Stockholm. Pours out in a slightly hazy copper colour with a creamy lasting off-white foam. Mild and quite neutral aroma of yeast, hay and metal. Medium-bodied with subdued notes of hay, metal and rose hip. Lively carbonation. Long metallic finish of hay, red berries and blood. Subtle character of really sharp metallic edges. I’m not a huge fan.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours amber with a thin wispy off-white head. Aroma is light esters, grassy, dusty, caramel and light spices. Taste is dusty, earthy malt, pear, caramel and pale malt. Medium bodied with soft/lush carbonation and a light soapiness. This was not bad, but rather bland.

12 oz bottle from Crown Liquors. Light amber in color with a small off white head. Aroma: skunky, vegetal and sour yeast. Taste is sharp malts- metallic, with some vegetal hops and overall unpleasant. ugh. I was expecting alot more after having their aged pale. This may have been way past it’s prime.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
0.33l - Dark gold liquid, nice light tan head, no real nose. Tasted vaguely like ginger ale but little flavor. Pass.
