| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Dec 31, 2006 Bomber. Pours clear copper with a diminishing head. Aroma is light fruity hops, slightly sour. Caramel malts, light floral hopping in the palate. Some oxidation really detracts. Light metallics. Seems a little unfinished/unfermented too. Body is very light. TPaliga (212), Munster, Indiana, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 7, 2006 Amber pour with thin head. Mild aroma of hops and yeast. Flavor yeasty and light. Easy, lively palate. Fightfire4beer (125), Virginia, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 6, 2006 tap. dark gold with a thick white head. slightly sweet, fruity aroma. caramel, nuts, malt and fruit. None of these really come out to the front and it seems to be just an average beer. after4ever (2736), Brier, Washington, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Jul 18, 2006 Draft at the 74th Street. Medium orange amber with a small, falling off-white head. Very bready nose. Not much on the palate--a little sweet finish, but the mid-palate’s fairly neutral. Very drinkable and refreshing; just substantial and bubbly enough to be called an ale but not a distinctive body. A nice, well-made, rather dull beer. JorisPPattyn (5169), Antwerpen, Belgium
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Apr 20, 2006 Draught No head; orange beer. A lot of citrus, some pale malts, and a shy aroma of bacon rind. Very malty taste, again with this Snoqualmie "bisque" mineral flavour. Light body, not too watery. Light, drinkable, but agreable, really. fakepurseninja (777), Washington, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Apr 14, 2006 Pefectly Decent Amber- Looks nice in the glass. nice flavor but just a little blah. Would be a perfect beer to compliment a greasy slice of pizza or knock back on a hot summer day. DarkElf (2681), La Jolla, California, USA
| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/20 | Nov 24, 2005 (22 oz bottle: $3.39 at Bottleworks in Seattle, WA) Finally, I think I have this off-flavor figured out. For quite some time, I associated this awful flavor with dish detergent, but tonight, I realize that this very much reminds me of sweet apple skins, or bruised red apples that have been rolled down the entire length of the supermarket aisle. This must be acetaldehyde I keep tasting in beers, and perhaps it’s a flavor to which I’m particularly sensitive. Anyway, if I’ve indeed figured this out, then this beer is loaded with this off-flavor, to the point where it’s all I can taste or smell. I still think it has a soapy flavor too though. The color is medium amber and it’s slightly hazy. Off-white head rises out of control, taking ages to settle down to something normal. I need to rerate this beer when I can get another bottle.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 8, 2005 To celebrate the end of our fiscal year, the company I work for gave each employee a bottle of this beer, relabelled to suit our corporate needs.
I thought that this was a very nice session beer. It has a slightly sweet taste, which was enjoyable. This brew is not ’big’ in any way, but certainly would be a great beer to give someone who has only had Bud/Mill/Coors
