Bottle - Amber colored beer with a thick head that dissipates in a few minutes. Inviting smell and has a good lager flavor. Nothing overpowering.. but fairly crisp and enjoyable. Not something i’d buy typically; however, would certainly be a winner to watch a few football games.

On draft at Acme Oyser House. Deep orange in colour with medium carbonation. Aroma is a blend of pale, caramel, and munich malts along with a faint note of orange marmalade. Bready malts dominate the palate, but offer a fairly clean mineral-like finish. A touch basic and bland on it’s own, but paired up with my fish and chips well enough.

Pours amber with offwhite head. Aroma is caramel, toast and cereal. Taste is sweet with a little roastyness. Light mouthfeel.

Draft at lafittes blacksmith. Copper color with lagerish nose. Taste is sweet and heavy on corn flavoring. Finishes clean.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear light amber with a small biege head. Aroma of malt and grain. Taste is malt, caramel with some bread and hops. OK.

Pours an orangish brown with a small white head. Aroma is mostly sweetness with a little maltiness. Taste is slightly sweet but very plain. Overall very bland but nothing horrible.

(bottle 8/3/11). Clear copper color. Medium off white head. Moderate sweet toast/malt aroma. Light sweet malt flavor. Avg duration. Dry finish. Slick texture. Moderate carbonation. Good lacing.

Bottle. Pours copper thin tan head. Strong caramel malt nose and some bread. Taste is sweet and mild flavor. Medium body, quick finish with a little caramel lingering, medium carbonation. Easy to drink pretty simple. Not bad overall.
