2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draft sample offered after the Anchor Brewery tour. Interesting style and concept although I found the flavor and aroma a little uninteresting. Liked the bitterness, but that was about it. Glad I got a chance to try it though.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Pours yellowish amber with fairly stiff white head. Not much for an aroma, taste is straw and grass, bitter finish.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Amber beer with a small off-white head; Aroma is bread and bitter grass; Flavor is a bit watery, but with a nice bitterness and a touch of malt; Finish is bitter with a very so slight sweetness; Very different and not at all like Foghorn, but I like it.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle bought at Sams in Chicago. Pours a clear gold with a medium fluffy white head. The aroma was kind of funky, almost like dirty socks. The taste was very smooth and easy; some light bitterness and a touch of malt. Not a bad beer, just really bland.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle from BevMo! Mission Valley. An off-white, average-sized & rocky head formed over a very lightly-hazed, amber body. Aroma was grainy & nutty with well-roasted malt. Bitter flavor, somewhat weak and thin, with a tinny finish that also held burnt nuttiness.
1.8 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle I bought @ Bevmo a while back. 3.3 % wow this gonna prob suck. Orange pour with a bright white head. Nose is dead. Taste is pretty piss poor. Wow this is crappy if you ask me.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
22 oz. bottle courtesy of FlacoAlto - Pours a clear golden color with a 3/4 finger thick white head. Light lacing. Aroma is big herbal hops, almost skunky. Flavor is esters and herbal hops. Light to medium body. The hops linger a bit on the tongue. I kinda like this one. Thanks Sebastian.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bomber. I actually really enjoyed this one, it’s not full of flavor, it’s not strong, but it’s not supposed to be. Refreshing and novel, a unique experience unseen in most breweries today. Very few American craft brewers buy into the belief that a beer that is low in alcohol can be good, but this one was. Thin-bodied doesn’t always mean bad, just usually in the form of macro-swill.

24 oz bottle. Pours clear orange with a nice white head. Aroma is mild spice. Very light mouthfeel. Flavor is bitter, very little malt sweetness(obviously thats in the Old Foghorn). Not the greatest beer I have ever had, but definitely drinkable.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 9/20
A very odd beer. Pours a very nice brown color, with a thick, very dense head. Aroma, however, is very lacking. Flavor is very, very watered down, almost like a pale lager, with a definite alcohol bite in the end. It’s ok, I guess, if you’re just thirsty. If not, look somewhere else.
