| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 28, 2009 Pours a deep, clear brownish amber with a big creamy beige head that recedes slowly to a soapy cap.
The aroma is pretty bland with some light sweet caramel malts, some earthy hops and a bit of roasted nuts.
The taste is more of the same with some lightly toasted nuts and caramel coming through. The finish is a little dry and has a lingering bitterness of citrus and grains.
The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with plenty of carbonation, though the flavors seem a tad watered-down overall.
This is a fair representation of the style, with a good flavor that would be even better if there was more substance to the body. Not bad. FlssmrBrewAlum (1249), Lisle, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 27, 2009 12 oz bottle courtesy of GAManiac. Thanks, Grant! Pours a darker iced tea hue, some fiery notes and more prominent brownish notes mix, a decent offwhite head sits atop, minimal haze, dies to a small layer, laces spotty. Aromas are some light brown type malts, caramel and a faint brown sugar mix with decent floral and earthy hopping, no real tobbacco notes, but a faint nut, toffee, and biscuits and bread make their way through. Initial is cereal, caramel, toffee, biscuits, and a touch of nuttiness stick to the palate, faint cocoa on the backend, pretty good malty sweetness, a light floral earthy hopping that leads to a bit of a tobbacco feel. Biscuits, toffee, and bread, smooth sweetness with a crisp faint vanilla feel, bitterness gets in there and provides a bit of balance in there, without taking the dominance away from the malts.
