| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 3, 2009 On-tap at Volo. Malty and yesasty aroma. Mahogoney dark reddish brown, with some soapy white head. Some nice lacing follows. Above average mouthfeel, dry, not complex but with Belgian characteristic finish that is yeasty.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 19, 2006 Bottle (330ml). Poured bright clear copper with a good sized lasting off-white creamy head and nice drapes of lacing. Cola-like sweet roast malt, mild winter spices and vanilla, some fruit hovering around. Very sweet taste, brown sugar and caramel roast malt, cinnamon and nutmeg, some bitterness in the finish. Mouthfeel syrupy, almost thick, fairly flat. Extremely sweet, but very easy to drink - would be a good dessert beer. Radek Kliber (4001), Toronto (Can) Krotoszyn (Pol), Ontario, Canada

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 8, 2009 Tasted on tap at the Celebrator Best of the West Beerfest on 2/15/2009. This brown ale pours a medium brown color from the tap. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is caramel, fruity and nutty. A medium bodied brown ale. The malts are caramel and sweet. The hops are earthy. Nice carbonation. A little on the sweet side, but a nice easy to drink brown ale. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.
