| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 17, 2008 On tap at Rogue Public House in San Fran. There was really nothing red about this, as far as I can tell, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. I wanted to get the imperial porter next, but they were out. Ah well.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Aug 12, 2008 Pours a dark mahogany color w/ a full creamy head w/ some English beachballs on top. Strong malty sweet aromas spill forward w/ a very heavy plumb candy and cocoa essence. Full nectar w/ creamy residual effers. It’s like pure heavy cream. Gloppy malt pulp spreads like jam over my palate w/ a mild yet noticable aspirin bittering component to help balance this copiously malty concoction. A massive caramel overflow is round and very generous in the gift giving dept. Graham crackers and some ripe stonefruit push forward. The finish never ends. Let it warm as the hops show stronger for more balance. Overall: this brew is decadent, like bacon fat. BOLTZ7555 (1080), Phoenix, Arizona, USA

Aroma is reminiscent of caramel, toffee, and brown sugar. Flavor is fairly sweet but has a mild nuttiness and just enough hops to get you to notice. A pretty tasty beer. carruthm (1125), Seattle, Washington, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jul 29, 2008 The aroma is nice and hoppy with lots of caramel. The hops have both pine and citrus with a hint of leaves. The appearance is amber with a large head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin. Overall it’s good but not as good as I wanted it to be. anders37 (4607), Malmö, Sweden
