| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 10, 2004 I’m a big fan of Rogue and the bar I had this one at, didn’t know what they had. I got them for under 2 bucks a bottle! Nice bitter, great coloring and head. If you like a good bitter style, go out and give this one a try! Dorwart (1812), Robbinsville, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 20, 2004 Decnt head form the pour. White to off-white. Nice lacing. Good aroma with a hefty helping of hops and a good malt backbone to offset it. A little pine also. Medium copper in color. Decent flavor but not that strong. More hops and bitterness. Hint of caramel. Finish is clean and slightly bitter. A very good bitter. beermatrix (1497), Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 19, 2004 Clear orange/amber, pinky high ivory cap, becomes fluffy and crusty looking as it slowly dwindles down to a thin haze on top and a thin collar. Lace in minimal strings. Aroma reminds me of a very subdued barleywine-esk nose, some caramel, a bit toasty, slight pine sap, sweet malt mostly, dry hop leaves and floralness touch the back end in bigger wiffs. Taste is nice and mild, welcoming warm toasty malts favor from front to back. Some refined and soft malt sweetness of breads and dull fruit keep it smooth and tolerable to the palate. There’s a nice subtlety about its approach. Floating and caring malt character with the same amount of comfort with the hop profile which has very slight floral, citrus, and pine mindfully placed in different areas throughout the palate. Feel is light and fluffy with a firm and sturdy, smoother lighter body. Which seems to fit this here, making for a nice little drinker. This is one of the few 12oz bottles with a paper label that Rogue distributes, which is a bit weird, cuz I really like seeing the ingredients listed like on their bombers. Oh well...label, no label, this is a pretty nice beer. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 13, 2004 Pours copper with a nice eggshell head and lace. Aroma of hops, malt, fruit, pine. Tastes very bitter, not much sweetness at all in this one, with hop, slight fruit, chardonnay, pine, and cognac taste overtones. Finishes very dry, bitter, and piney. It got creamier as it warmed. duff (5475), Surrey, Greater London, England
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 4, 2004 Tap@Rogue Brewery. Quite nice. Citric floral hops, lightl bready, extremely soft malts. Would have been even better if the mouthfeel had a bit of a kick to it, really soft, and ironed out mouthfeel. A good session beer.
