2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
This poured a dark amber. The aroma is caramel and toast. The taste has caramel and some abc sugar gum. There is also a grassy note. Better than I expected.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Sampled at Brew Ha Ha 2005: Pours black in color with a good head that left quickly. Aroma was slightly burnt and I wasn’t looking forward to that. Turned out the after-taste was somewhat burnt also.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours to a think black color with a small head. Slightly sweet smell; thin mouthfeel. The taste is rather unremarkable; most of it dies off early.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Right from the bottle. Dark, earthy, sugary dirt? I think that kind of sums things up. At the time, I was not in to dark beers, but have since changed my feelings, without a retry.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
12 oz bottle: dark beechnut, sour black lagerish flavour, with a burnt hack stack aroma. I think that some of the barley was roasted, perhaps they used a bit of manure...not for me, this one.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Autumn Brew Review 2004. Brown color. Vague malt presence with an actual touch of alcohol. Bland.
1.5 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Light Brown Coloring. No Head. Carbonated...Easier to Drink Then The Lager. Some Malt. Pretty Watery...It’ll Get You Drunk I guess.....
2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. No head. Looks like Coca-Cola. Smells sweet and syrupy. Nose smells slightly of malt vinagar. Flavors of molasses, malt, and carbonation come through. This tastes like flat Dr. Pepper with a touch of alcohol. Finishes crisp with a moderate mouthfeel. Not bad, just not good.
