Golden, slightly hazy pour with a white head and decent lacing. The aroma was sweet, toasted malts, light spice and bread. The flavor was sweet malts and light spicy hops. Thin, drinkable mouthfeel. Sessionable, but on the sweet side.

This was not good. Tasted like someone poured beer in the very bottom of a glass and then poured water the rest of the way. Would not drink again in a million years. The only beer I would drink from the can is something intentionally cheap like pabst or coors, not something thats supposed to be nice. A total drain pour.

Widget Can. Pours a creamy yellow gold with a thick creamy head. Taste is very creamy and smooth and subtle hop finish. Palate is thinner, mouth is creamy but watery and thinner than expected.

A creamy yellow in color beer. Pours a thick foamy head. Taste is creamy with a bit of bubble carbonation. A little spice and hoppy aftertaste. Overall an okay beer.

Nitro-tap at a fake Irish pub downtown. Apparently the Press Room frowns upon pub golf, so instead of a nice pint of Bitburger or Union Jack, I’m stuck with this watery, almost flavorless nitro contraption beer. I actually hadn’t had this in a couple years and was genuinely curious. back then I thought it was pretty bitter and harsh. Today, it seems pretty bland and lifeless. There is a long cascading effect with a thick creamy head, but some of the nitrogen seems to be staying in suspension creating a weird cloudy look. Lightly metallic and mineral water aroma with a touch of sweetness. The flavor is lightly bitter with some mineral water and light tang. Flat and thin body with artificial creaminess. Pretty much Guinness with the roasted barley left out. Definitely not a fan.

16 oz. Widget can. Pours a lovely thick lasting head, with attrractive lacing over a clear golden (SRM10-12) body.....nose of light malts, slight spice.....taste is initially mild light malts with a gentle hop bitter finish....mouth feel is light with slight carbonation....this meets its style almost perfectly.

(can). Pours a dark yellow color. Has a creamy white head with heavy lacing. Sweet hoppy aroma. Has a light hop taste. Smooth and creamy finish, with light alcohol taste. Moderate carbonation.

Pint can. After the cascade, a medium sized off-white settles into a half-finger of nitro bubbles on top of a dark yellow body. Light grassy aroma. Every sip is initially very watery but fills in a bit with light bitterness, grass, and a little sweetness. Medium body. Just not much going on. Had a can lying around so why not?
