Draught. Pours light copper with a faint white head. The aroma is sweet in a floral way with a very low acidity. The flavor is predominantly malty, though the brew is still thin overall. Hints of chocolate bread and nutmeg make up the light flavor and perhaps a small nip in the finish. Not so bad.

UPDATED: MAY 4, 2005 Draught in Chattanooga: I agree with most of the other reviews. This one pours a slightly orangish-amber color. Somewhat floral aroma. This beer has a nice malty balance with the hops. There is a decent tart, citric taste from the hops without being overpowering. A smooth, tasty lager, but nothing too special.

Bottle. Poured a clear copperish color with a one finger off white head. Aroma was of malt and some floral notes. Flavor had sweet malt and bready notes. I was decently impressed with this offering.

Caramel, toasted bread malt (M); earthy hops (L). Orange-amber body. Moderately sweet flavor becomes a lightly sweet, lightly bitter finish. Medium body, watery texture, soft carbonation. The bottom line is: nothing to see here folks, just move along...
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Nice orange color, decent head. Smells very bready and the taste follows suit. This reminds me of a marzen and I was quite surprised by ho much I enjoyed this beer. Of all the Big River beers this was probably the best one I had the chance to sample.
Serving type: on-tap

Draft at Downtown Chattanooga location
Poured a deep ruddy color with an almost white head. Aroma was hidden so well had to foam my nose to find it, but nice when I found it. Flavor is light bodied for the style, but has nice toasted malt and bread flavors as expected.

Nice copper color with some white head. Not much though. Some malt in the aroma and flavor. Smooth and enjoyable. On tap at the brewhouse in Chattanooga.
