| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Mar 29, 2005 Bottle. This one pours a dark amber with little head. A little bit of hop in the nose, but not really much aroma wafting up from this one. Let’s begin... Ok, first we get some malt... a little like an English pale ale with Kent Goldings, but they taste more like Fuggles. Not overwhelming, but an Ok brew. No real sweet maltiness to match the bitter. Not very balanced. Too much sour and bitter. Overrated, probably because it has the Rogue name on it. Worst one I’ve had from them, but still not terrible. hezron (601), Viroqua, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 27, 2005 Pours copper with a average white head that lasts a while. Good lacing. Aromas of pine and apple with some caramel malt (not much). Flavor is initally acidic. It finishes moderately bitter finish. I may be strange, but I tasted raisin and pineapple. Medium-full body with soft carbonation and a lightly metallic finish. aspidites (1274), manteca, California, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 26, 2005 Fairly basic bitter, less malt forward caramel and crytal than I would expect. Very soft and unassuming mouthfeel. mild East kent bittering with some minor hop pellet astringency. Overall too lite for style with a very soft finish. swirl (267), collingswood, New Jersey, USA

The copper coloring looks great and inviting inthe glass. Definately one to be shared with friends. steview (901), Los Angeles, California, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 20, 2005 The bottle poured a slightly cloudy reddish-copper liquid. The head was white creamy and of medium size. It lasted very long leaving very nice lacing. The aroma was malty with hints of grass. The initial flavor was of malt sweetness. Hop bitterness dominated the middle and the finish is strong and long-lasting, and still mostly made up of hop bitterness.
