2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Amber pour, no head and not much lace. Small hops and wet malt nose. Malty, slightly caramel and almost a hint of roasted malts. Wet palate and a smallish hop finish. Average.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle: Lighter amber color is transparent with a very minute white head, no lacing. Aroma is light hops and lagerish malt. Taste is mild malt, grassey, and hints of hops. Watered down a bit? Not very impressive.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle. Hazy orange pour with a white head. Aroma is sweet sugars, hay, and a bit foul. Medium to thin palate. Taste is very sugary, grassy - just not really enjoying this one.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Slightly oxidized taste, bready and toasty, stronger on the malts, a departure from the NW ambers. Very smooth in the body, but the oxidized flavor makes it feel thin on the palate. Pours dark copper with a soft beige head.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
12 oz. bottle- Pours light cloudy amber with a thin almost nonexistent head, aroma is light malt. The flavor is amber malty, body is thin, carbonation is low, very boring beer.
2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Drank 3/19/11. Thanks to Brenn79 for this. "Best by Jan. 2011." 12 oz bottle into lager glass. Pours a hazy cantaloupe hue with minimal head. Smells of stale grain and caramel malt. Taste is sweet and salty; has a faint hoppy bite in the finish. Highly carbonated and light-bodied. Very bland.

12oz bottle acquired in trade with kyzr (thanks!). Poured a medium and hazy golden color with a smaller sized head. Aromas of caramel and overall buttery. Tastes of caramel, buttery, and toasted malts.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
12 oz bottle, via kyzr. Pours a clear dark gold colored body under a small fizzy white head that faded to a thin ring. Aroma is very vegetal in nature with a heavy corn presence. No hops in evidence. The flavor is quite corn dominated as well with a dry husky graininess throughout. Finishes very bland with a light cereal note. Mouthfeel is thin, light bodied, and has a moderate level of fizzy forced carbonation. I couldn’t believe that this was an all malt beer when I read the label. It’s like a poor imitation of Yuengling Lager.
1.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle. Light amber, brief white head. Sweet caramel aroma. Spritzy, sweet caramel palate with a faint ginger ale quality that I didn’t like. Disappointing.
1.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
One of the worst beers I have ever had. A watery/medicinal taste. Would never purchase or drink again.
