Great aroma earthiness, barley, and hops. Taste matches the aroma with rich grains and malt. Where’s a big stein of this stuff on tap when you need it? CaptainChaos (13), , North Carolina, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 5/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 22, 2008 It’s a nice dark amber color with a strong flavor. I am not much on heavy beers, but I can appreciate the beer for what it is. It’s definitely a one time drinker, don’t want to go throwing a bunch of these back. Neematoad (71), , Illinois, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 5/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Sep 22, 2008 Is a nice dark copper color with a real strong malt taste to it. Wasn’t really my type of beer but could respect what it was doing. Heavy to drink, best suited for a "one and done" type of beer drinking session. Finishes semi-sweet. ditmier (1053), Boise, Idaho, USA
