UPDATED: MAY 23, 2008 Pours amber with minimall head. Minimal lacings. Nice balance of sweet malts and hops. Not familiar with Vienna style, but nice balanced brew. Recommended.

On draft at Flat Rock Saloon. Poured copper with chunky white head with nice sheets of lacing. Flavor is sweet malts with definite caramel and chocolate notes present. Watery. Nothing great, but not terrible either.

Clear copper with a medium off-white head. Aroma of caramel and some floral hops. Flavor has notes of caramel, toffee, some toastiness and a minor hop presence. Medium body, smooth texture and lively carbonation.

Bottle. Amber pour. Pretty boring as most are. Bland tasting, corn sweet malts touch of caramel. Drinkable but nothing much else

IlanMan (1015) - Appleton, Wisconsin, USA - MAR 24, 2008
This is the most pathetic looking amber beer I have ever seen in my life. This looks like a light disgusting brewsky. Aroma of is corn and very light malt. Taste is a little more intersting with a bit more of a malt bill and a caramel aftertaste. Nothing special and again, not worth my purchase again.

blipp (3600) - Newark, New Jersey, USA - MAR 22, 2008
Bottle. Pours amber with an off white head. Aroma hints at caramel malt and a touch of hops. Medium body, a bit too much carbonation. Bland flavor hints at caramel again but not much else. Drinkable but boring.

EithCubes (3053) - GERMANY - MAR 19, 2008
Bottle. Sweaty Munich malts, dark caramel and nuts with basement funk and a dash of celery. Hint of cardboard, too. Heavily carbonated, ruddy copper body, clear with a soapy off-white head. Taste is bare malt, slightly caramel-tinged but not really, well, not really anything. Crisp, hard feel, medium body with lighter edges, dry and still abusively tingly in the aftertaste. Quick sting of bitterness, very light, and then it’s gone. Essentially tasteless.

this is a decent beer. goes down quite smooth. kind of bland, but i could drink large quantities of this. if i wanted to get drunk on a beer that looks sophisticated, i could see myself going with this one.
