So, I actually wrote this quite a while ago, but only just now realized that I hadn't posted it.
Appearance: 3.5 - It's brown with slight blue tint if you hold it up to the light. Nothing about the appearance says that you wouldn't enjoy drinking it.
Smell: 3.0 - The smell has mellowed out quite a bit at this point, but the hints of wheat toast and jelly do remain.
Taste: 3.0 - At this point, the taste is very mellow. There is a slight sour note to start and finish with the accent coming in the middle on the fruity taste. Honestly, this was all more intense a few weeks ago, and I think that I preferred it then.
Mouthfeel: 3.0 - Same as before: there is no alcohol bite and the aftertaste is short lived. It's not very bold, but it is distinct.
Drinkability: 3.0 - Very mellow and very easy to drink.
Bottom Line: 3.0 - My friends who aren't normal beer drinkers have really enjoyed this recipe, and it would work well as a desert beer at a party. Personally, I like more bitters and less fruit, but for my first real try at an original recipe, I'm quite satisfied. This particular bottle had some issues with carbonation, but I did not find that to be representative of the rest of the batch.
