| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 16, 2008 Bottle. Very normal. Poured a copper color into a shaker. Aroma of malt and floral hops. Flavor is plain and thin. Not my favorite, but my wife liked it. jake65 (1698), Williston, North Dakota, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Sep 15, 2008 Draft: Darker copper pour with a large, lasting beige head. Aroma is light of musty malt and some florals. Tastes a bit dirty, and not in the fun kind of way. A bit toasty, floral, and earthy. Just wasn’t really thrilled by this. bluemooner (230), Blaine, Minnesota, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 15, 2008 Pours an amber hue with medium, foamy, off-white head which lingers. Tastes of light malts and some hops with much carbonation. Rather unimpressive with no very interesting flavors to it. boFNjackson (1266), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Sep 14, 2008 This is not a good beer. Bottle... Poured amber/orange with a head that dissipated immediately. Aroma of floral esters and sugary malt. I felt that it was a little too carbonated and the flavors were so subtle that they were overshadowed by the carbonation. Just a spicy, sweet malt with some earthy hops. It doesn’t really do it for me. ilherps (226), Carbondale, Illinois, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 11, 2008 This does taste like a beer that I would love to drink on a cold day around a fire over a bowl of chili. There are mild malt flavors with a strongly carbonated, warm flavor. I have had better from redhook, but the name says it all, this is a good beer for the fall.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 11, 2008 Bottle (12oz). Amber pour, clear, with a good-sized foamy-creamy beige lasting head. Very light aroma - sweet malt, floral, perhaps a little earthy. The taste - eww - plastic and sugar, that’s about it - maybe stale weeds soaked in pond water that’s had a big bag of Pez candies lying at the bottom for a couple of years. Light body, soft and weakly carbonated, finishes quick and leaves a linger of slight stale bitterness (maybe that’s the previous beer intruding on my palate). Pretty bleh or, at best, meh. boto (1326), Granby, Connecticut, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 11, 2008 Cask version @ Portsmouth Brewery: This one pours a cloudy, very dark golden color: it is approaching brown. It has a small off white head that left some lacing. Lighter but good aroma. It was caramel malts with some grassy hops and citrus. The taste is somewhat dry. Decent malt body, with some grassy, earthy and citrus notes. A very nice session beer. improvjock (98), Namegata-shi, Ibaraki-ken, Japan
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 9, 2008 Pours a nice amber with medium off-white head that dissapates sorta quickly. Sweet caramel malts on the flavor. A little rich, but not too much. Very drinkable and tasty!
