Beer Guy99 (250), Maineville, Ohio, USA Feb 2, 2004 Nice, enjoyable dark lager. You can taste the dry, bitterness of black malt. Light on the hops but the texture is good anyway. A little shallow in the middle but it finishes well.
kwoeltje (1237), Manchester, Missouri, USA Dec 27, 2008 (bottle) medium brown/dark amber with small tan head. Faint malty aroma. Flavor is biscuity malt, on the sweet side. jbuzz (578), South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Dec 1, 2008 All Berghoff brews seem to have the same base flavoer. This one is no different only slitly dark. popephred (152), Plainfield, Illinois, USA Nov 26, 2008 Found in the bargain bin at Dominick’s, for $1.98 a six-pack. Poured from the bottle into a pint glass. Pour produced a dark caramel colored body topped by a small, quickly diminishing head of off-white foam. Weak malt aroma, not offensive, not much of anything. Sharp effervescence, with a sweet flavor that diminishes quickly, leaving a slight bittersweet aftertaste. The palate is on the sweet side, favoring the malts, though I couldn’t pick up much else due to the carbonation. I think that this isn’t too bad, and was worth the bargain bin price, though it certainly doesn’t rank highly in my book... BeerBunker (250), Burbank, Illinois, USA Oct 19, 2008 $5 for a twelve pack...Can’t beat that. Pours a dark amber color with a white head. Aroma is of earthy malts, cola, and faint hops. Taste made me cringe, and not in a good way. Tasted of toasty malts, grass, and hops. kassner (228), Wexford, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 18, 2008 on tap at Ohara Airport. Not much different from Amber Ale. A little more earthy and certainly darker but similar.
