May 30, 2004 Tap@Bear Reublic Brewpub. Well, for a malt liquor its very decent. Lots of alcohol in the nose and palate, but balanced by a good amount of hops, a hoppy malt liquor.

Jun 10, 2004 tap@brewery. not sure why they’d name a beer after an australian radio station. piney aroma, a pretty hefty kero burn in the finish which reminded me of the time i drank some lamp oil that i was told was lemongrass liqueur. despite those bad memories i enjoyed it

Dec 11, 2003 Medium gold color. Small head. Aroma is malty and sweet. A medium bodied malt liquor. Malts are slightly sweet, with a noticeable touch of corn sugar. Hops (Yes HOPS!) are grapefruity and slightly juicy. Nicely balanced. No alcohol bite. Very smooth taste. A nice malt liquor. Way to go Bear Republic! Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.
