| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 29, 2009 Quite a fine beer but not my style. A bit sweet in flavor with very little to remember. DuffMan (2786), the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, Canada
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Apr 1, 2009 Bottle. Clear copper-penny amber, 1cm almond head, dense with decent retention. Grainy aroma with some caramel and a hint of breadcrusts. Grainy caramel flavour, a suggestion of marzipan fruitiness, and a dry short finish with low bitterness. Just okay for me. sdriessen (208), Dunedin, New Zealand
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jan 30, 2009 Aromas are quite basic - malt, caramel and some hop.
Flavours are very sweet, mostly of caramel, bready malt and some apricot tones. Butterscotch is there, but I would say it is more of an off flavour.
Quite smooth and clean on the palate, clean probably because there is no aftertaste at all - reminiscent of water.
Basic and too sweet, but overall, not awful. larsga (3000), Oslo, Norway
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 18, 2009 Small white head. Lovely deep amber body. Fruity cedar wood aroma. Dry-sweet earthy prunes and wood taste with sherry notes. A bit sugary. Thinnish body. Mild mouthfeel. Aftertaste is the same, with some added caramel. Quite nice, but feels a bit artificial.
