| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Sep 24, 2008 650ml bottle. A very sessionable american strong ale. Very hard to believe this was 9%, I would have guessed half that. Tasted great. jefcon (998), Arlington, Virginia, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 21, 2008 Red and amber in the glass. Aromas are straightforward, hop bite and some slight chocolate, some spice from the hops. Distinctly European hop flavors are a little floral, a little stale. Empty finish, but medium mouthfeel otherwise. Pretty solid and definitely old school. lemasney (398), Trenton, New Jersey, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 7, 2008 Bottle at Volo, Toronto, November 2007. Pours a dark red, amber, with a good sized head: aromas hold citrus, grapefruit, wood, hops. Good, full mouthfeel. I taste sweetness and caramel in the malt, a bit spicy with a long bitter finish.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 6, 2008 Nice red brew, small foamy tan head heavy body, malty aroma earthy with solid bitter aftertaste marchcow (664), Coralville, Iowa, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 5, 2008 Orangish colors with a rich foamy head. Aroma is rich floral, malty, hops, slight pineapple. Spicy flavor with caramely middle and sweetish finish. Fruit juice, light bitter hoppiness, rich. Palate is mild and carbonation is mild. Pretty good but lacks punch. Gar4016 (24), , Iowa, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 4, 2008 22oz bottle. Pours a red amber color. Decent amount of head with a little bit of lacing. Quite aromatic, pine, a little citrus and a little sweet malt. The palate was nice and for me quite balanced. Quite a bit of hops at the front of the palate followed by caramel, a small amount of carbonation, some bitter hops at the end and finished with faint caramel and chocolate. I like this quite well, very aromatic with the dry hopping, balanced, and covers up the 9% quite well. Will purchase again.
