| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 23, 2005 Poured a copper red color with a small, off white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus yeastiness, vanilla, butterscotch, and caramel. Sweet caramel maltiness, earthy, citrus fruitiness, and a dry, lightly bitter, hop finish. IPFreely (1470), Lewiston, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 22, 2005 Reddish amber, off white head. Floral and perfumey hop aroma, nice malt backing. Mildly malty flavor with some earthy hops in the flavor, slightly bitter finish. Medium bodied. Pleasant and pretty enjoyable. bmanLS (114), Gibsonia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 13, 2005 Tan-brown pour with a small white head, floral aroma, mild malty flavor with a bitter finish. Not bad, not great. BennyTicklez (621), USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 25, 2005 On draft. Pours brown white a small white head. Malty aroma. Dry cardboard like taste. Malt is more up front than the hops making this beer not that bitter. I was kind of upset with this one, I have liked all the other Stoudts I have sampled. axilla (962), New Providence, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 16, 2005 Pour a hazy reddish color with small head lace. Malty aroma with some hops thrown in. Very well balanced flavor. Quite a good esb. jefcon (998), Arlington, Virginia, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 4, 2005 Draft. A little reddish in the glass. Didn’t know what exactly to expect. Aromas are faint, but there is some fruit, some hay and malt all mixed up. Palate is long, twisting and turning like a rollercoaster. Flavor is rich, malty, with an of-the-earth hop bite and a bitter but pleasant finish. My only criticism is that all of these components really don’t meld. They are distinct and separate. But good, and there is terroir in this beer. Lou18 (1353), West Paterson, New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 4, 2005 Ricklikbeer, thanx. Amber reddish body with large creamy off white head. Head diminished to small and hung around. Aroma of malts and hops. Crisp taste, mouth feel is midlevel. There was some bitterness as it finished. But I did not detect much sweetness. Good but not a session beer. Silphium (2124), Haslett, Michigan, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 3, 2005 Clearish copper orange body, thin off-white head. Earthy, biscuity aroma with caramel and light fruit. Sweet, fruity, caramely body with grassy, earthy hops mostly as a backdrop. Almost a hint of strawberry in here. Rather thin-bodied but still tasty. Thanks Dan (jah noth) for the bottle!
