2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Murky amber colored beer with a thick foamy white head. Nose of unbaked bread with slight sweetness that is almost nutty. Taste is a little sweet with malt up front, which is pretty good, but then a funky aftertaste hits that lingers on the palate. This is a bit musty. It’s not offensive, but it’s also not altogether pleasant. After contemplating it a bit, it coats your mouth with a resiny flavor not unlike opium--not that I’ve ever tried that of course. Some good flavors are here, but also some not so good. Wish it were better.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
12oz can from Douglass88. Mostly clear vibrant amber with a decent off white heat. Fairly light malt, bready with some yeast, corn and lightly sweet. Mild body and carbonation, bit doughy, somewhat sweet, not a fan of the aftertaste that leaves a bad macro lager over the palate.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: JAN 19, 2013 Bread crust-like malt aroma and flavor. A little sweet, some light caramel, with some lager yeast character (sulfur is the best descriptor I can think of... But that sounds bad).
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Hazy golden color with a short lived white head out of the can. Thin, winey nose. Lots of water, wet grains and some cardboard. The finish has a stale lemon citrus note. Really not very good.

bread, floral, golden, hazy, frothy, initial lightly bitter, finish medium sweetness, light body, thin feel, sticky, average carbonation
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Pours a red amber color with a huge white head that lasts forever and ever.....and ever. Aroma is malts, corn, yeast. The taste is slightly fruity with a little bit of a metallic, watery aftertaste. It’s very light and tastes a step above a flavored water. It’s OK I guess, not really offensive but not a great beer.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Can from a generous trader. Pours reddish orange with white head. Nose/taste of bready malt, spicy biscuit, light toast and hints of pine. Clean. Medium body.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Light spicy aroma, light creamy malty flavor, thin body. You could almost float a balloon with this.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft. Hazy golden color, medium white head. Aroma of spiced biscuits. Taste is malty brown bread. Nice.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
UPDATED: MAY 31, 2012 Can. Pours amber with a medium-sized off-white head. Aroma and flavor are grainy and a bit sour with an odd sweetness. Expected more caramel. Mildly hopped.
