Aroma: sweet, alchohol. Appearence: Hazy, orange. Flavor: alcohol, sweet, yeasty finish. Palate: watery, lingering yeast. Ovearll: tastes like watered-down Old Stock Ale with out the complexity. Not a big fan.

Attractive looking beverage, orange/red, hazy, strong white head, dissipating relatively quickly. Aroma is sweet, candy sugar, grains, vanilla, alcohol. The flavor is surprising, sweet, fruity, sugary, vanilla extract. The alcohol is not as in your face as I might have thought. It definitely comes through though. The finish is sugary, with a wallop of alcohol warming the mouth and throat afterwards. Medium/thick to thick mouthfeel. Interesting. No way worth the money it costs, though.

Pours nice and foamy into a chalice. Smell is strong grains and alcohol, taste is smooth and the alcohol hits you just a little bit later. Yes, the alcohol is all over this, but it’s pretty smooth and tasty nonetheless.

Orange in color. Alcohol, vanilla, and butter aroma. Heavy alcohol taste, very syrupy and unpleasant.

Pours a golden amber color, with a metallic alcohol aroma. Wow, its like a shot of beer! Taste is strong alcohol, warming your insides all the way down. A little too strong of a alcohol taste for me, feels like I should drink this beverage out of a shot glass.

Wet metal and raw sweet corn are very prevalant in the nose. Cloying entry begins with canned peaches and finishes with a warm boozy push from behind. At lower temperatures the still dissovled bubbles do provide a little umph to the brasseire. All in all these are fake, not well doctored. Reminds me of workingn in the back of a grocery store, the smell of road dirt, sheet metal and punctured soup cans. Overall the sweetness of this "all malt," creation coupled with a strong aroma of first run rum is great for a buzz, tough for a rating.

8.4 oz bottle. Pours a dark amber with good amount of white head. Smells like green apples and booze. Green apples flavor prevails on first taste as well. Followed by warming alcohol. Subsequent taste jumps straight to the alcohol slightly tempered by sweet maltiness. This isn’t good, far from great, but it’s not as awful as many of the review would lead to believe.

Pours a white head with legs and a deep golden body. Smells of alcohol and grain...reminds me of vodka or corn whiskey. Flavor is cream corn, some vanilla, and alcohol. Finish is a bit hot and lingering sweetness.
