2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 KAF (447) - Coralville, Iowa, USA - MAR 5, 2009
Thanks to Skyview. Clear caramel pour with a finger thick off white head that dissipates quickly. Toffee and carmel malt notes on the nose. Flavor is very dulled and almost flavorless. Not sure how to describe the flavor. As a swirl it around my mouth there is a very tiny sour note and very dull malt but nothing else. This may be the perfect lawnmower beer.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 Beershine (5173) - The Sunshine State, Florida, USA - FEB 24, 2009
Bottle. Clear orange-amber with fizzy white head that lasts a long time, and lacing. Aroma is like tonic soda, very bland, strange, and devoid of malt character, let alone hops. Soft mouthfeel. Very odd beer. Has little flavor and yet there is nothing actually wrong. Reminds me of gin. Finishes with a gin-like subtly but the lack of malt/hop character makes this beer puzzling.

12 oz bottle from a sampler at Publix. Poured a clear dark amber color with a thin off white head. The aroma was caramel. The flavor was malty, with a sweet twang in the finish.

Color of a marzen; deep, burnished copper with a bone white head. Lightly sweet caramel aroma. Smooth malt character with some toasted bread intertwined with residual sweetness. Pungent hop character in flavor sticks in the flavor. Pretty unpleasant. Highly bitter carbonation level

Bottle shared by Larry. Aroma is vegetal, carrot. The palate is steamy, with some squash notes. Mild, veggies, potatoes. Tough carbonation. I thought this was alright.

Poured a clear copper color with a small off-white head. More aged brown apple flesh from old/oxided malt from this company. Light DMS. Light, but fruity, malt flavor.

Goldtwins. Get both butter and dms in here, along with a dry toasty crackery malt hint- oxidation and paper as well. Hint sof ginger, phenols and paper in the flaovr with a light crackery malt note- dry and metallic finish. Blech.

Bottle. what an odd beer. Copper color. Aroma is sweet and malty. Flavor is even sweeter. Almost like cotton candy. Very interesting but certainly not amazing. Hard to even figure out.
