[1] Review by Vac from San Diego, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (12/21/2007 3:27:05 PM)
"Pours with an amber-red body topped by a thin to medium thick head with some lacing. The aroma is slightly sweet and fruity with a slight hop note and a note of tomato sauce. The flavor is slightly sweet and fruity with slihgtsheery notes. Reminds me of a weak barleywine. Meidum to full bodied and smooth."

[2] Review by Hannah from OK, USA who has tried this beer once. (5/22/2007 9:15:52 PM)
"Pours copperish-amber with short lasting head and good clarity. Aroma boasts pine and tropical fruit and was much more powerful than any other amber I've sampled. Sweet malts balance herbal-citrus hopping in the flavor. Nice clean finish. Light bodied, but satisfying, with ample carbonation."

[3] Review by Brett from Far from good beer, OK, USA who has tried this beer once. (5/22/2007 9:08:32 PM)
"Sampled from bottle, thanks to ChrisM, amatuerbeerguy & beertracker's trip to dark lord day 2007. Pours hazy amber with a thin, off-white head. It's assertive toasted malt aroma forshadows a complex malt flavor: toasted bread, caramels and toffee. Well-balanced and smooth with a hint of plum. A good example of the style, albeit a bit strong. Quite enjoyable."

[4] Review by aracauna from Adairsville, GA, USA who has tried this beer once. (9/14/2006 10:06:52 PM)
"Pours a slightly hazed red with a small head. The aroma is full of caramel and toffee malts along with a bit of fruity hops. The flavor is lighter than expected, but still satisfyingly malty."

[5] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (6/12/2006 2:15:23 PM)
"Bottle: Poured a deep clear amber color ale with a small foamy head with minimal retention. Aroma of citrus hops is clearly dominant. Taste is a mix between some sweet malt caramel and some overpowering hops. Seems to me this another one of those 3F recipe where they take a traditional style (Pride & Joy, Robert the Bruce) and drop some major hops on top of it. A bit too one-dimensional for my own taste."
