3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Skyview (4859) - Papoose Jct, Minnesota, USA - APR 30, 2007
On tap at the brewpub/bowling alley. Pours a reddish dark amber with a good size head. The head stays even at low temperature. Slowly dissolving head and a very good lacing. Aroma is sweet malt, caramel, mixed fruit, especially dehydrated apples. Taste is sweet at first and then a dry finish. A little high on the carbonation but still very good. Previous beer raters may have had a bad batch sample as I consider this their second best beer.
1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 DiscoForever (71) - Dunedin, NEW ZEALAND - SEP 16, 2005
Slight choc in aroma, but again, like the Nut Brown, this is sour. Looks dark brown - red if held to light, no head. Tastes bitter, tangy and sour and overpowering. Lactic. Finishes quicker than the Nut Brown. Light - med body with minimum carb. Again, not great.

On tap at the Brewpub. Red amber color with a white head. Big carbonation bubbles. No aroma. Very tart sour taste. No finishing hops. Smells like vinegar. Pretty awful stuff.

Nice looking amber color, smelled just a little bit sour, tastes indescribable, really musty and sour, a flavor I really can’t put my finger on, all I know is I don’t like it, maybe it was a tap without the proper turnover, beer got old in the pipes or something, not real great or even good for that matter
