yumyum (59), barrie, Ontario, Canada Jul 1, 2008 pours rich golden amber, malty and sweet honey on the nose. quite decent on the palate, not overly carbonated. Nice sweetness in flavour and relatively smooth finish. overall not overly impressed (perhaps because I was looking forward to trying it). It is a decent brew but nothing that stands out.
goozen (785), Leiden, Netherlands Oct 15, 2008 Bottle: Hazy amber coloured brew with an skeleton on a barrel at the label. Pretty sweet ale with hints of plum, citrus and slightly caramel. tlind2 (281), Helsinki, Finland Oct 13, 2008 Draught @ Maltainen Monni, Helsinki. Murky amber color, white head. Resiny hop aroma. Sweet, malty flavor with a great bitter background, some notes of plums. High carbonation, medium body. Pretty good! jerohen (1482), Bussum, Netherlands Oct 12, 2008 Bottled from Jusco supermarket, Shenzhen, China. Clear orange coloured, lasting head. Nose of barley, some alcohol. Caramel malts in flavour, some bitterness. Not very special. Bhops (221), Dallas, Texas, USA Oct 11, 2008 had this many times before but haven’t rated yet. Pours nice golden applejuice color... fizzy dissipating head. Aroma is malty honey sweetness with some floral hops in the background. Nice honey flavor with hoppy balance.. smooth drinking, well balanced beer. darkguardian (195), Florida, USA Oct 10, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a clear amber with a full fluffy head. Slightly smoky nose with lots of citrus hop aroma. Very bocklike up front with smoke and caramel malts but finish with a very piney bitter kick. Its actually very tasty and well crafted as a session beer. It reminds me a bit of Bellhaven Scottish Ale with its use of smoke malts.
