It has an aroma of mild citrus and some hops and caramle malt. As you drink it there is an initiall bitterness which fades instantly and becomes very smooth. It contains some earth tones and mild hints of honey. The palate duration is very quick, and is mildly sweet and bitter. The finish is also very watery. Drink4Satan (585), Bristol, Rhode Island, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Nov 13, 2007 Pours a clear orange-copper with a fully fading, thin off-white head. The aroma is sweet and grainy, with caramel malt dominating. Toasted grain and bread also whaft the nose with a touch of toffee sweetness and earthy hop citrus poking through. The flavour is weaker on the caramel than the nose and stronger on the grainy, bready malts. The hops are a little under-pronounced for my tastes, leaving the beer less crisp than desired. The finish is short, watery, and lacking character. buckybeer (666), Eau Claire, Wisconsin, USA

Aroma is over sweened malts, sort of a faint vomit smell. Flavor also has an overpowering sweetness of malts, grains and caramel syrup. 00cobraR (1098), Greensboro, North Carolina, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 31, 2007 Pours bright orangish amber with a mostly receding light tan head. Aroma of sweet rich maltiness, dripping with toffee and notes of bread and toasted grain. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, slightly sticky with lush carbonation. Very nice festbier, one of the best American examples of the style. emacgee (1864), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA
