3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Juseq (77) - FINLAND - MAY 13, 2013
Bottle. Aroma has orange and bready malts. Flavor has sweet orange, caramel and bready malts Smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Aftertaste is fruity, too sweet for my taste lowering the rating a bit but a nice session ale nevertheless.

Dimpled mug. Sweet smell, hints of malts and barley. Pours a cloudy copper, quick dissipating head. Thick heavy mouth feel, finishes sweet. A really sweet tasting beer and not necessarily in a good way. Just average.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 blackmetal (86) - Calgary, Alberta, CANADA - MAY 12, 2013
Really disappointing due to the rankings and fanfare. Unspectacular and standard save for increased sharpness and caramel & citrus moments.
4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20 Ericular (227) - Minnesota, USA - MAY 9, 2013
Pours a cloudy golden brown with enormous head and good lacing. Aroma is tons of caramel malt and a little bit of piney hops. Aroma is complex and changing - very nice. Taste is similar, with rich malts and full flavor, with the right amount of fruity hops to cut in at the end. Palate is full bodied, smooth, and rich. Overall very well done. Might be an old bottle - label was peeling and it poured cloudy. Would love to re-rate to confirm this one.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Martinus (1782) - Nijmegen, NETHERLANDS - MAY 9, 2013
Clear amber gold colour, slight off-white head. Aroma of hops, malt and honey. Quite herbal. Sweet malty flavour, bitter hops, rather fruity. Bitter finish, hops, light honey.
Feels a bit old, no best before date though.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 rorgel (12) - - MAY 7, 2013
Thought this would be better from Rogue, but I guess every beer can’t be perfect. Drinking from a bottle, but has a bitter aftertaste that is not pleasing.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 ComradeK (732) - Blue Mountains, AUSTRALIA - MAY 6, 2013
650ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy burnished copper amber, with a medium off-white head, which lasts well and leaves reasonable lacing. Burnt caramel and fresh white bread mix with a touch of honey and some mild herbal hops in the aroma. Light herbal and floral hops up front are overcome by sweet burnt caramel malt. Honey and mild chai tea in the mid-palate lead into a slightly spicy finish. Quite a pleasant malty ale.
