Pours a crisp looking golden color with lots and lots of bubbles rising in the brew with a big foamy and pillowy white head. Floaties waver around with the bubbles. Lots of breads and yeasty smells waft off the brew. A bit of spices mixed in there as well. A bit of a sweet malt flavor comes in on the palate first, which then moves into a peppered and spicey yeast note that lingers for a bit. Kind of has this weird appley fruit thing going on past the spices, where it finishes out. The spice lingers for a quick minute. Kind of reminds me of a triple, but way more spiced. Enjoyable, but nothing to WOW about. Mungo (2474), Southampton, Hampshire, England
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 16, 2006 Bottle (from Bitter Virtue). Alcohol noticeable but fairly restrained. Peppery yeast, sweet malts and a touch of boiled sugar. Light herbal grassy hops. Becomes a bit sweet in the end without enough bitterness to round it off. Fairly enjoyable for a while just not particulary drinkable. xproudfoot (729), Paleolithic, Pennsylvania, USA

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 10/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 10, 2006 No date, must be pretty recent. Bronze. Large, dense, rocky white top. Nose of sour apples and pears, must, past ripe melons, zesty yeast, sugar. Sweet, floral, and sour up front. Finishes sour, bitter, and dry. Big earthy and bitter hops in the second half and finish. Balances the sweetness and then some. Spicy notes throughout, also. Medium/full body with lively carbonation that matches the flavor very well. Great brew. Love this brewery. Funk guaranteed. gnoff (3568), Göteborg, Sweden

Sweet fruity and alcohol scent. Nice smooth mouthfeel. Sweet taste, a bit bitter aftertaste.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 7, 2006 Cloudy brown color,large off white head that had a long hang time then faded slowly to leave a nice lace behind.The aroma was malty with a slight spicy side some hints of fruit and a mild sweetness coming through as well.The flavor was pretty decent all around with a nice sweetness to it some good citrus notes and a mild spicy side make this a fairly well rounded brew.The alcohol is there but manages to be fairly well hidden with just a slight warming in the end.Over all i’d have to say this is a pretty good brew and well worth having a few more around for later. larsga (2959), Oslo, Norway
