| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 6, 2008 Pours a nice mostly clear mahogany color with a light beige, fairly small, quite fizzy, mostly diminishing head with no lace. Nose is filled with dust and lactic notes, and maybe some rich caramels far in the background. Flavor is a little better with some toffee, rich caramel, some toasted notes, and maybe some milk chocolate. Palate is medium, watery, and lively. Finishes with caramel and some mild lactic notes. One step above a drain pour. kmeves (1081), Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, USA

Aroma is caramel, cherry and plum/raisin. Flavor is malty, caramel, some cherry and raisin. Medium to light bodied, nice long sweet caramel finish. A pleasant surprise!
