| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 5, 2008 Pours out a light copper color with a small to moderate white head. Aroma is of some sweet malts and a little grassy/earhty hop note there too. Taste is very drinkable, sweet malts, slight fuity notes and some hop bitterness lingering throughout.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 2, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear orange with a pale off-white head that lasts for a good amount of time. The aroma is a bread-y dry with some sweet caramel. The hops seem not to be that noticeable. Malts are pretty dominant. The flavour is a bit funky. Orange and orange rind are in the initial flavour. As the flavour progresses, the caramel notes come through as well as that nice breadiness. Some light spices show itself more towards the finish. This is all fine, though, some funkiness begins to arise from here. Towards the back of the tongue, there’s a weird soap-like flavour to it and a light bitterness. I like bitterness, but I think the other flavours make even the lightest of bitterness somewhat unpleasant. I’m not too fond of this brew. tronraner (1913), Seymour, Tennessee, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 30, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours bold copper color with lots of bubbles and beige head. The aroma is sweet and malty with some raspberry, chocolate, lime, peach, and nectarine notes. The flavor is malty and somewhat tart. It dries out with some woody, earthy, and herbal hops. There are some dusty, toasty notes in the finish. Drinkable, not outstanding. sneagrams3 (1747), St. Louis, Missouri, USA

Caramel aromas with a berry undertone. Medium bodied with caramel and estery flavors. Bitter and dry with a tingling finish. Slight oak and burnt toast flavors. Toffee malts and citrus bitterness.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 16, 2008 Pours clear bronze with a soapy tan head. The aroma has caramel malt that is fairly dry and soapy with a hint of hops and signs of diacetyl. Medium crisp body with a good amount of bite and semi-sharp carbonation. The flavor is very similar to the aroma with some phenolic spice and some spicy hops. The hops come out a bit more on the finish. Fair at best wcampbell (576), Central, South Carolina, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 16, 2008 Pretty interesting beer. Slightly different touch on the APA style. Creamy mouthfeel and full flavor. Well balanced. Some spice and hops complement the wheaty malt flavor nicely. Lightly fruity finish. Skidds (252), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
